Emby Service installed, starts manually, but not yet starting automatically

Hi all,

I followed the how-to install Emby as a service, as best I could, I'm running Microsoft Windows 10 Home, and as you would expect, Microsoft changed everything, hid everything, I had a hard time finding the new screens to add a user, change permissions, etc., but pretty sure I got it all done and correctly.

Emby is installed as a service, and if I goto Task Manager->Services, Emby is stopped.  I click start and it starts just fine.  It's just not auto starting after a reboot.

I did notice Windows didn't like the nssm.exe when I pulled up it's properties, put a "lock" on it as unknown, I cleared the lock for that file, so should run now.

I'm not sure what's my next step.  It's been years since I fiddled with starting services.  Open to suggestions at this point :)

Thanks

LOL I'm a dork, it starts just fine... I was just too impatient.

It's set to "delayed start", which means it waits 2 minutes before starting.  I didn't wait HAH

Okay, installing Emby as a service on Windows 10 Home works w00t!!!!  Good luck finding where they hid the screens/options though :)
