Win autostart

If you wish to run PlexConnect as a windows service, so that it automatically starts at boot, you need to download and install PyWin32. It is vital that you install the version that corresponds both to the version number of Python installed and whether it was the 32bit or 64bit version of Python (regardless of if you have a 32 bit or 64 bit computer).

Once you have installed the correct version of PyWin32, ensure PlexConnect is not already running and then look in PlexConnect's "support/Win" directory where there are 4 .bat files that can be used to install/uninstall the service and also to start/stop it once it is installed, e.g. in case you want to update it.

Troubleshooting note: If you are able to start the service manually in services.msc but it doesn't seem to start automatically on a reboot set then try automatic (delayed start); this may remove issues related to the service not starting due to your network not being ready quickly enough.
