Need to do a fresh install of Emby Server

[Tony B. 38]

What are the registry keys, folders, and EVERYTHING else I need to remove to guarantee a fresh install?

[Luke 42086]

There are no registry keys. Just use the uninstaller.

Will the Backup/Restore utility be ok to use? Also, if I use it will it back up all my series recordings?

[Luke 42086]

It will be ok to use however it currently does not backup dvr schedules. why are you doing this?

[Tony B. 38]

Too many broken things. Slow-down, guide issues, etc.

I'm sort of in the same boat. Tried to upgrade from v 3.2 and system wouldn't work, so I ended up uninstalling and now installing v 4.1. My problem NOW is that I can't seem to find the executable (or unpacked the RAR to the wrong directory) What I WANT to do is place a shortcut to the embyserver executable in the task bar so that I can restart the server without logging back in or re-booting. What I currently have is a set up for the server that is lost as soon as I exit the server. What part did I do wrong?

Hi, why not just run the installer from the website?

The embyserver.exe executable is in the %USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\system directory.  Right click on it and select Send to Desktop (Create Shortcut) and then do anything with that shortcut you want.

@@Luke Does the backup tool back up the mappings on Live TV channels

[Luke 42086]

Not yet, sorry.

I just did a test install on a Linux server. The guide takes just as long. I'm not going to bother with it.
