Hi, my NAS system is Windows and I'm not using Raid, I'm using Junction to aggregate multiple hard drive directories into one directory. (C:/mnt)

Now I installed audiobookshelf-windows and I found that
audiobookshelf-windows doesn't recognize Junction, I hope it will support it, I think it's a very basic feature, Plex, Emby, Jellyfin support it.

(Such as picture, I'm talking about Hard Link, Symbolic Link, Junciton)

Going from 2.7.1 to 2.7.2 through the auto update system worked perfectly.

Going from 2.7.2 to 2.7.2.1 it just keeps saying there's a new update available. In "about audiobookshelf server" it says I'm on 2.7.2. Even after going through the update process multiple times.

Outside of this, I've been using your windows builds for almost a month now, been super solid, thank you so much for your work! Brought me back to abs lol.

Every few days I find that audiobookshelf has crashed and when I hover over the tray icon it dissapears. I then have to manually relaunch it and it starts up the server again.

This seems to happen at random times. This last time it was when I clicked refresh on a library, it then popped up "socket disconnected" and I checked what was up and it had crashed. I've been experiencing this every few days it would seem.

Could someone assist me to troubleshoot and get to the bottom of this? Thanks!

When changing port From Tray and click save, it saves the directory in the box below instead of the port number. I have to change it on the config file.

I'm trying to get Audiobookshelf-windows running on Windows Server 2019 which does not always use the same dlls as Windows 10/11, so I need to install the server version of dot net manually. What version should I install to get AudioBookshelfTray.exe to run?

I have the docker version and created a backup. When I restored it on your windows version it doesn't restore the book cover images. I don't have many audiobooks but I would still have to go one by one and match the books to restore the book covers.

I know the readme says that tone will eventually be replaced, but I'm wondering if there is any kind of time table on that? I'd prefer to run the Windows version of ABS but the Docker version is the only one that has all those extra tools which I'd like to use to manage my files as i get my library started. I can also use tools like inAudible which is very fast for converting mp3 to mb4 (faster than tone in ABS it seems) but the rest of the ux/ui isn't as nice as ABS.

While i'm here, i might ask about audiobook splitting too, perhaps these kinds of tools would really kick ABS up a notch, as great as it already is.

I have 2 audiobooks that I placed together in the authors' folder, but only one of them is showing up in my library. I thought maybe the m4a file format was an issue, so I converted it to a mp3 but it is still having the same problem. The other file imported just fine and as expected, I just can't seem to get the one to show up.

I tried restarting the server as well as the whole computer but it still isn't showing up. When I run the library scan it doesn't find anything new.

Ignore that it says docker. This is just a folder I keep these types of things in so I can go to them easily.

The bug I have found is long folder/file paths, I moved my audio books from my synology NAS to my windows machine for ABS, once I setup ABS and added the library I noticed some books were missing, upon looking through the logs I encounted Error [AudioFileScanner] No such file or directory. After looking at the file and folders that had the error they looked pretty long. As there were 70+ books to shorten I tried to enable longfilepaths in the registry to see if that fixed the problem but it didn't so I renamed the folder and files shorter and that solved the problem.
It's not that big of an issue though.
Please find the attatched as an example of the problem faced (as I had already renamed all the problem books already to reproduce this error I just renamed the folder and file to be the longest windows would let me make it).

In the RSS feed documentation, the feed has the IP address but with the windows version it is set to "localhost" so I can't stream from another podcast app on my local network. Anyway to set this?

Hello thanks for making the windows version! I just installed it and it installs fine. How can I add a library. The browse for folder doesn't seem to work. I just get Note: folders already mapped will not be shown.
