Kodi v18 Leia Nightly: The developers of the free media player Kodi have announced that the upcoming Kodi 18 will also be released as a 64-bit version for Windows.
Kodi, which started as a media player project on Microsoft's first Xbox console, has become a very popular media player application, thanks to its unlimited customization options and the multi-format support it provides for other media services.
Although it can be used to add and play local media files, it provides support for streaming audio and video, as well as television.
The current version of Kodi is only available as a 32-bit application for Windows, while it is also available as a 64-bit application for Mac and Linux systems.
The app's blog post confirms that Windows users have been asking for a 64-bit version of Kodi since 2012 and describes why it was so difficult and took so long to release.
Kodi 64-bit for Windows is already available as a development release. Those interested in trying out the new application can download the latest version from the official Kodi download page, or from the links at the end of the post.
Please note that this is a preview of version 18 which is still in development.
Those of you who are using the 32-bit version and are waiting for the 64-bit version will be able to switch to the 64-bit version without any problems according to the developers. All you have to do is to overwrite the 64-bit version…
