Hi, I'm quite new to Jellyfin, I have had everything up and running for a few weeks on a windows11 and now I wanted to automate the backup.
I created a powershell script to stop the jellyfin.server process and do the backup and then restart the process, but I was finding that on restart accessing jellyfin via the usual url failed to connect to the server.
I found that exiting via the Jellyfin system tray icon and then starting the Jellyfin Tray App fixed the problem so I assumed I needed to also stop and start the Jellyfin.Window.Tray process. The processes are stopping and starting but I cannot get it to work without manually restarting the tray.
I also tried with just the Jellyfin.Window.Tray process which appeared to affect both processes but that also required a manual restart.
What is the correct order in which to stop and start the two processes (Jellyfin.Server & Jellyfin.Window.Tray)? Or is there another process that needs to be stopped/started?
Many thanks
