This release brings fixes for issues that caused pain to many Windows users. Follow the directions below will score you the update immediately. Otherwise the update will be downloaded and installed automatically through typical app usage.

  • Restart Plex. The update will be downloaded automatically.
  • Wait 2 minutes
  • Restart Plex. The update will be installed immediately at launch. It is an interactive installer for v1.0 to v1.1. This will be improved in updates from v1.2 onwards.

Fixed

  • Windows: Application scaling default to system’s display scale, instead of 100%, when the PLEX_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable is not set.
  • Windows: Application scaling supports additional PLEX_SCALE_FACTOR values: 2.5, 3.0, 3.5. This better accommodates scaling on UHD screens.
  • Windows: Prevent Visual C++ runtime installer from immediately rebooting some user systems after install.
  • Windows: Automatic updates will correctly default to non default installation paths for Plex versions > 1.1.0.
  • Windows: Automatic updates will prompt for update consent before starting update for Plex versions > 1.1.0.
