The first point is to delete any registry key for the user account associated with Plex on your system.

Install the PMS Service application to enable Plex to run as a service.

I suggest you create a standard user account for Plex, and then move the Plex data to that account.

Stop Plex from running when a user is logged into the machine.If you would like to run Plex Media Server as a service on a Windows machine, you will need to do two things: By default, Plex only runs when the user that installed Plex is logged into the machine, so I had to change this functionality in order to have Plex run as a server.

To accomplish what I have described above requires Plex to run as a service in Windows. The server updates and reboots automatically, and after each update Plex Media Server automatically restarts so Plex is available as long as the system is running. I run the machine headless, which means there is no monitor attached to it, and I also don't have a user logged into the machine, unless I need to perform some maintenance. Then applied the plexpass fix again.My Plex server is currently running on a Windows 10 workstation that I keep under my desk. I rolled back the change, started plex again and ensured it started up. NOTE: The first time I did it, Plex did not start up successfully with the following error in the log - 'Error: No such container'. I followed the suggestions in this thread and it resolved it for me. Instructions are difficult to come by to sort this.
