Ollama AI

[BanjoTom]

I'm just beginning to explore the AutoTagger functions in IMatch 2025, and have begun to go through the helpful and extensive information about AutoTagger in the IMatch help file.

BUT -- Do I have to restart Ollama after every re-boot?  If  I don't run the full Ollama installer after a reboot, IMatch tells me that AutoTagger "cannot reach the 'Ollama' AI" and that I must "restart the local AI." 

How do I do that, without running the entire Ollama installer every time?  Is there a way to make the Ollama AI stick?
