    Plex media server on Windows --How do you shut it down properly.


    Hi there

    I can't see any way of stopping PLEX Media server on Windows - simply closing the web client doesn't shut the program down - it's still there in the background.

    On Linux it's easy --just a command similar to service plexmediaserver stop / start / restart.

    I really don't want to have to go into CTRl_ALT-DELETE and mess around with taskmanager.

    Surely there should be some way of decently manually stopping the service.

    Cheers

    PLEX Media Server fails to start after anniversary update - MFPlat.dll not found

    Prior to installing the Windows 10 Anniversary update today, my Plex Media Server ran fine on Windows 10 PRO N, having once previously installed the Media Feature Pack for Windows 10.

    However, post update, Plex no longer starts, citing MFPlat.DLL not installed. So, did Windows 10 anniversary update uninstall this? How do I get the DLL to be installed? I reinstalled the feature pack, but it still isn't working.

    I even tried uninstalling the anniversary update, and plex, and reinstalling Plex, but that didn't work either.

    Any suggestions on how to get a working MFPlat.DLL
