Appdata Location Missing PMSV: 1.19.4.2902

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Server Version#: 1.19.4.2902
Player Version#: N/A

Simply moving Plex to different system. I’ve never had an issue before and this is my 7th or 8th Plex Setup. I’ve been using Plex for 3.5 years without an issue I couldn’t figure out. Appdata location was able to be easily moved under Settings but it is no longer there and I can’t find a recent post about the issue. Where is this option now?

General Settings with Advanced options expanded no longer displays a location.

Disk Layout. P:\plex_application is where Plex is installed but still auto-saves metadata in
C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server. 20 GB worth of Metadata is already in the P:\plex_application\AppData Directory.

Thank you for any assistance!

This was removed with a recent PMS release due to security concerns.

You can still assign a different folder using Windows Registry Editor

Thank you very much! No issues on disk size. Plex is on a 50 GB partition of a 1.6TB PCI SSD. I looked at registry editor before but since I hadn’t created any new libraries, the path didn’t exist. I just added the string, path and opened Plex and I am good to go. Thanks.
