If you have a 2nd gen Fire Stick or a 1st or 2nd gen Fire TV and a VPN account you can now install their VPN client on your Fire Stick/Fire TV using this guide (The guide has shows how to install IPVanish or PIA but if you know what you are doing you should be able to do it with any other VPN as long as you know a url to access the Android apk of your VPN provider)

I know a lot of people who visit this site use Firesticks and some of the posts I do involve installing a zip file rather than adding source URLs to the Kodi File Manager. So I thought a guide for installing zip files using ES File Explorer would be good.

How to Install Kodi on a FireStick By MJD • November 30, 2018 Below is the easiest method for installing the Kodi application on your Firestick or Fire TV. Firestick remains to be the cheapest streaming devices of them all, while Kodi being the best streaming app the world has ever seen. This guide will combine the two streaming giants and will provide detailed steps on how to install Kodi on Firestick on Kodi Krypton 17.6 and Kodi Leia 18 for 2019. How to Download and Install Zip Files for Kodi to a Firestick. First you will need to know the address of the zip file you wish to install. In guides on this site and others you will see links that say download and save the zip file to install this add-on/repo.

Installing ES File Explorer is necessary but once installed you will not need to do it again so the guide is in 2 sections: Installing ES; Downloading and Installing zips.

To Install ES File Explorer on FireStick

Select Settings

Installing Kodi Fire Stick

Select System

Select Developer Options

Select Apps from Unknown Sources and turn ON

You will now see a warning message regarding unknown sources. Select OK you can turn off unknown sources later but we need it on to install Kodi

Go back to your FireStick Home Screen
Select Search & start typing ES File Explorer

Select ES File Explorer when the application appears

Select Free

ES File Explorer will now install. That is the 1st step complete. We can now move on to downloading and installing zip files to your Firestick

Before we start you need to know the url of the zip you wish to download. For this example I am going to use the TKNorris Beta Testing repo zip. The URL for is pretty long and would be a pain putting into the Firestick so what I have done is used the URL shortener website bit.ly which made the url http://bit.ly/1lOcMRs which I recommend if you don't want to have to add long URLs

Open ES File Explorer

Select Favourite when ES File Explorer opens

Select Add

Select Path

Download Kodi Firestick Es Explorer 2017

Type in the url of the zip file you are trying to install. I will use the bit.ly address I created for the TKNorris repo & select Next

Add a name for the zip file & select Next. I will use tkrepo for this example

Select Add

You should now have a bookmark in your Favourites with the name you chose. Select it

The zip will now download and tell you the location of the download (which will always be the Download directory on your Firestick)

DO NOT select Open Folder or Open File just press the Home button on your Firestick and launch Kodi (which can now be found under - Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications) and select SYSTEM

Select Add-Ons

Select Install from zip file

Select External Storage

Select Download

Select the zip file you just downloaded

Wait for Add-on enabled notification

The file is now installed on your Firestick.

You can delete the bookmark from ES File Explorer Favourites by long pressing on it with the middle button on your Firestick remote and selecting remove or keep it there if it is a zip file you may want to download again.
