Plex Server Starts: Brower Opens

Whenever you start your PC Plex opens IE browser http://127.0.0.1:32400/web/index.html#!/setup

Annoying

Right click on Plex server sitting in your tray and untick Start Plex Media Server at Login




Done

The only issue with this is that Plex will have to be run manually it will no longer start up in the tray next time you restart your PC.

The other issue is that if this service is not running you will not be able to access your files locally or remotely this will mean you will have to run Plex each time you want to use it.

The other method to stop the browser from opening is to Download this reg file below.

Click Download, when done go to the file in your downloads and double click on the .reg file.

Do this at your own RISK - Worked for me

Say yes to User Account Control

This will prompt you with registry editor, click yes


Your service will startup in the tray enables as normal but no more annoying Browser window.
