Latest stable version of LMS 8.5.2. Installed localplayer via 3rd party plugins in "manage plugins". Reboot Plugin is enabled when selecting settings/advanced/local player Select binary dropdown only displays squeezelite-win.

All the files are present in C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Cache\InstalledPlugins\P lugins\LocalPlayer\Bin

Both X64 and 32 bit in respective subdirs

from sysinfo on my NUC

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC Version 10.0.19044 Build 19044 System Type x64-based PC

OK. I fixed it myself.... lol.   

i tried running the x64 binary from a cmd prompt and got a missing DLL error. This DLL is installed by Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable package.  This package is not installed by default in the cutdown Windows 10 IOT image.  I downloaded and installed the latest version. Restarted the LMS service  and Viola  X64 is available.

Hopefully this might assist others in the future. IOT edition is popular for Audiophile Windows optimisation as its a lean version of Windows.. but not without its problems it seems :)
