I love that plex can now tell me there is an update to install, whats new about it, and even the ability to download the update onto the server, but it just needs the ability to install the update without me having to rdp on and clicking the "Install" button. I expect it's going this way given h…

Providing that it comes with an option to not auto-install...

This has been discussed before, and the general concensus is that servers should never update unattended. People rather have a stable server than new features when they are far away from home. Jaap

There have been a few issues where people have tried updating their server remotely and were aware that the server install required a local keyboard input to finish up. Here they are 100's of miles from the server and it's hung during the install process and no way to resolve It until they get home…

I called my daughter at home to make sure if a screen came up that required interaction, she would be there to complete the upgrade. (Of course she was not there at the time, so I cancelled and did the upgrad…

That's the way I would like it: no unattended installs, but a very easy upgrade procedure. Unattended installs ar…

I don’t agree with unattended updates, but the ability to simply agree to install an update from Plex Media Server–given that it already shows there is an update available, and what has changed–makes sense. The only time I remote into a my machine is to manually install the update. It should be inst…
