Plex Windows App (Win7) install issue

Server Version#: 1.16.5.1488
Player Version#: 1.0.0.792-d4adb056

Downloaded and installed on Windows 7 64 bit. Yes still in the dark ages and not Windows 10 yet.

Issue: No warning or pop up to notify of system restart required the installation just does a restart. BAD programming practice.
During installation the whole screen goes black for a while then came back then did the restart, no user input!

I just installed the app and had no issues with the installer needing/or doing a restart.

The Plex installer even had to install VC Redist
Capture

No reboots here.

Confirmed. The exact same thing happened to me: rebooted without prompting.

The install process was very long and heavy, like I was installing MS Office. After installation, the app could not connect to my libraries. I uninstalled it immediately.

Platform: Windows 10
