I just upgraded my Jellyfin Server on Windows 11.
Previously I've been running it "as a Service", but the 10.10.3 installer looks like it found my previous install (which was running as a service), removed the service, and is now just running a background exe from my user account.
Is this correct? I couldn't find any reference in the changelogs, but maybe I missed it.
Edit, just in case anyone runs across this thread:
I had to completely remove Jellyfin from the system for the installer to give me the option of installing as a service again. I backed up the Jellyfin folder in ProgramData before doing it and simply swapped that data back in after the clean install.
