Plex keeps crashing on PC - Windows 10 Pro

Player Version#:1.24.5.5173

Every time I open my Plex server on my Windows 10 Pro PC it crashes about a minute after. This happens faster if I attempt to edit any information like title or sorting title at the home screen. My friends I share with and I are able to access my library just fine from our connected devices. However, it does not allow me to play anything on my PC or even have the program open for more than a minute. Does anybody have a solution to the problem above? I’ve uploaded the Plex logs.

I apologize in advance if there is a solution to my problem already. I could not find it by searching.

Is it the Plex server or the Plex for Windows app that is crashing? If your Plex server crashed, you would not be able to access the libraries.

There is a problem with the auto-update process in Plex for Windows v1.34. It causes the app to crash after about 1 minute.

Download the current version, 1.37.0, and manually install it (scroll to bottom of page, click on Apps & Devices).

Dude, thank you very much. Yes, I did mean to say that it was the Plex Windows App that was repeatedly crashing. Your quick solution appears to have done the trick. Problem solved.
