Could you perhaps be more specific?
You can alter most "stuff" by editing the XML-files.

HI
It is possible to do some rearranging of menus etc but as Spragleknas has said it requires editing the xml files for the skin you are using.
I have recently made changes to some xml files to relocate some buttons etc to make the interface less confusing.
I am not familiar with xml but found the changes quite easy to do but this is dependant on the skin you use. I used to use XFACE skin but as I dont know xml I found it difficult to interpret the xml files.
I recently made the switch to the MONACHROME skin which is much easier to understand and also has some extra menus that are added as plugins providing more flexibility.
Have a look if you're interested. If you are not familiar with xml then I will try and help as much as I can but as I said I am new to xml and so can only do basic things at the moment.

So, I had disabled the Windows Update service. Not a wise move, until MP all installed and working nicely. The reason it failed is because DotNetFrameworkChecker.cs looks in Registry HKLM SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\NET Framework Setup\\NDP for v4/v4.0 AND v3.5. W10 has V4.0 but not 3.5. MP installer...

Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC?
For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface.
Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten.
But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...
