no button for intsall as service

Post by dloose »

Running 4.1.13.1801 on a Windows 10 PC. DLNA server runs fine from within MM but I would like to install it a as a service. The button to do so (which appears on my other PC's) is not available on this PC. It's not grayed out - it is not there. Any advice?

I'd like to do this because MM crashes when this PC goes to sleep. Obviously this kills the DLNA server.

Did you install MediaMonkey as Portable Install?

I thought I did a simple update. I'll try a clean reinstall; maybe that will help both problems. Thanks

The Service isn't available in the Portable Install (as it can't tie into the OS). If you updated did you maybe already have the MediaMonkey Service installed (and thus don't need to install it again)?
