Steps to allow app loopback access in Windows 10/11.  This is required for apps like Emby Theater on the same system as Emby Server.

1.  You need to get the appid/packagefamily name.

  • open Powershell and get list of apps.  Type: Get-StartApps # For all applications

  • Or Type something like this Get-AppxPackage EmbyMedia*

2.  Once you have the apppackageid you type: checknetisolation loopbackexempt -a -n="EmbyMedia.EmbyTheater_py25wab55fpaa" ensuring you have quotes around the id or the command will fail in PowerShell.

3.  Now you can check which apps that are allowed localloopback access.  Type:  checknetisolation loopbackexempt -s

If you need to delete an app you would use the appid with -d.  Type: checknetisolation loopbackexempt -d -n="EmbyMedia.EmbyTheater_py25wab55fpaa"

Have no issues with Eric Lawrence's Loopback utility under Win 10, as well.
