Browse By Folder Option Missing

Plex Media Server
1

Hi all.
Very puzzling problem here. I have local media content on my Windows based laptop. I want to add a Movies folder on my existing PMS (hosted on a My Cloud Home server). When I go into the My Cloud Home PMS app and press on the “+” sign to add the folder; I choose the type (Movies), but the option to “Browse By Folder” does not appear, so I cannot select the content (which again is on my laptop’s hard drive. I can’t figure out if this is a WD My Cloud Home device or PMS intentional limitation, or if I am doing something wrong.

Can anyone assist?
Thank you.

Server Version#: 1.18.6.2350
Player Version#: N/A

You can only use the preset folder locations on the WD my Cloud Home. Info about that here Western Digital My Cloud Home | Plex Support

Hi BigWheel, thanks. I must have missed this in my search for a fix. I can live with the limitation; was just curious. Thanks again.
