OK, gotcha. Yes, I think the issue is that LMS need to get going first, so you need to delay the startup of Squeezelite-X. Squeezelite-X has an autostarter application that runs on startup, checks to see if the autostart option is set, and if so it starts Squeezelite-X. That is the thing that needs to be delayed. There are various utilities that do this sort of thing. You may also choose to use the lagacy installer, the non-Windows Store version. It id pretty much identacle, but has a traditional installer (that requires admin privileges to install.) One difference is that the autostarter app is located in the Startup folder in the legacy installer and it is located in the application folder for the MS Store version (which you do not have access to). Without the MS Store on your device, you are not getting any automatic updates anyway. It might end up being easier with the legacy installer. But, at the end of the day, you have diagnosed the problem correctly. LMS must be up and running or it won't respond to discovery protocols or telnet connections, or anything, obviously.
