The problem is not plex but a windows update that microsoft fixed 6 days later with another update

This summarizes what caused the issue and what fixed it

I had this issue back when the update was first released - downloaded the “fix” update and I’ve been fine ever since until today. Happened again. Has anybody had an issue since the windows update?
