Can't connect to my Plex media server since 9/29/22

The server can say that if it’s unclaimed. Because the server and player are on the same PC, what do you get when you type this?

If it says claimed=0, then you should be able to (re)claim it.
If it says claimed=1, then it is claimed.

The document to read these days if you have to do so: You need to reclaim your server, but don't dare to touch the Windows Registry
