The raw maintenance addon is one of the best kodi maintenance tools. If you are facing low storage or cache issues on your device this addon will help you to fix it. Each time you stream a TV show or Movie on kodi, it will store thumbnails and log files. As a result, it will affect the performance of the device and reduce the overall functioning of the device. Finally, you would run out of space and Kodi would run slow. Raw Maintenance is the one stop solution to these sort of problems. After the installation of Raw Maintenance addon, you can clear kodi cache and thumbnails to free up storage space and keep your device run smoothly.

3. Once you have opened the addon, you would find 3 basic options likely Maintenance, News, and support. The maintenance is the option which we need to work on. Other 2 options will provide some updates and support for the addons.
4. On selecting maintenance option, you will end up with this window. Here there are three simple options likely clear cache, delete thumbnails and Purge Packages.
Let me discuss the functioning of these features of raw maintenance addon.
Clear cache:
On selecting clear cache, it will remove all the dump files resting on your system. Say, for example, if you are streaming a 4k movie with kodi, then it will download loads of files to your system and ruin the performance. In such cases, clearing the cache will improve the overall performance.
Delete thumbnails:
Almost all of the addons and repositories will have at least one thumbnail images. Apart from that, some thumbnails will be stored within kodi. So deleting thumbnails will free up some space for the better performance of the device.
Purge Packages:
On choosing purge packages it will prompt you to remove unwanted package files available in kodi addons, repositories, and builds.
To keep your system running smooth, you have to Clear Cache, Delete Thumbnails and To Purge Packages once in a week. These are the steps to use Raw Maintenance Kodi Addon. Hope you find it worth reading. Do drop a comment below in the case of any clarifications.
Hi,
I have a recall box with Kodi built in.
I followed the instructions and it seems to have deleted Kodi. The emulation station ( thousands of games) works fine but when I click on Kodi media centre I just get a black screen and then it goes back to the game screeen.
Help please.
Hi, when I add the solved source and go to install from zip, the ‘maintenance’ file is empty. So are the others, so I can never install Raw Maintenance. I am using Kodi on a Rasberry Pi 3.
I would really appreciate your help
I am having this issue too and can’t find a good URL for no-issue
After installing and clicking on maintenance the file is empty. Nothing in it. Thanks.
After i open the maintenance file there is no repository maintenance zip, there are no files at all, what can i do
Instead of opening maintenance go to the bottom and choose the very last one
