Plex running in background but won't open

Hi @kiwichick, @The-Shrike, thanks for sharing your experience. Let’s see if there’s an answer in the logs.

After a restart and confirming Plex.exe isn’t running (the player app, the media server can be running), will you please:

  • start Plex
  • confirm it’s busted and stuck in the background
  • terminate Plex from task manager
  • attach Plex.log from %LOCALAPPDATA%\Plex\Logs\Plex.log

(Hi Shrike, I found your logs over here: Plex Windows App Not Launching - #15 by redesigned)
