1
Download the dashboard you want. Make sure that you're downloading from reputable sources so you don't end up with a virus or malware . You'll also want to ensure the dashboard you download is compatible with your version of UnleashX and Xbox.
- Popular dashboards include:
  - XBMC4Gamers
  - EvolutionX
  - XBMC
  - FSD (Freestyle Dash)
  - Kodi .
2
Extract the files. You'll need to use a program like WinRAR or 7-Zip to extract zipped files that aren't in .zip format. Your computer has built-in tools to unzip folders in .zip format .
- You'll find a folder with the name of the dashboard and a file called "default.xbe."
3
Connect your Xbox to your PC. Use an FTP like Filezilla . If you're having issues, make sure FTP is enabled on your console.
- The default IP address for your Xbox is "192.168.0.2" and both the default username and password are " Xbox ."
Navigate to "E:\Dashboards" and create a new folder with the name of the dashboard you want to use, like "Kodi."
5
Copy the dashboard files to your Xbox. Copy the "default.xbe" file from your computer to your Xbox in that folder you just created.
- For example, if you want the Kodi dashboard, copy the "default.xbe" file into the "Kodi" folder on your Xbox. When you do that, that will now be a usable dashboard on your Xbox!
You're done using your computer and can go to Menu > Dashboard on your Xbox to change your dashboard.
