Emby Server Stuck on loading

[Kikinho 0]

Hi,

 

My Emby Server is installed on Windows 10 PC. PC was shut down and after I power it on again, Emby Server does not want to start, it just gives me message "Emby Server is loading. Please try again shortly.". I even tried to restart the server, but again is it stuck in loading.

 

Log is in attachment.

To me it looks like it is trying to update/install VC++ 2017.

But Visual C++ setup fails because I have newer version installed. My version is 14.16.27012 and Emby tries to install 14.15.26706. Why Emby does not recognise that there is newer version? What should I do, uninstall the version that I have and install older one?

I made newer print screen where you can also see my existing Visual C++ version

There several topic (all different versions) and in the end the all pretty much say get the latest version from here.  Usually a registry key issue.

I was able to start Emby server by uninstalling my version and installing 14.15.26706. But the latest version on the Microsoft link you sent me is 14.22.27821, which is again different than on link "https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Resources/tree/master/vcredist2017" where Emby server checks. I suppose github link needs to be updated and probably it should be done more frequently, since it seems that for some reason (maybe some other app) I installed newer version which makes conflict with what Emby server expects.
