I uninstalled that update and rebooted. Some part of Plex Server came up. I tried to uninstall Plex manually, but it no longer appears in the list of installed programs. Noe I try to install the Plex Server download and I get:
The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the ‘Plex Media Server’ disk and click OK.
If I just click OK (since I have no disk), I get:
The file ‘’ is not a valid installation package for the product Plex Media Server. Try to find the installation package ‘pms.msi’ in a folder from which you can install Plex Media Server.
If I hit cancel, I get:
The older version of Plex Media Server cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.
When I hit OK there, I get:
**Setup Failed
One or more issues caused the setup to fail. Please fix the issues and then retry setup. For more information see the log file.
0x80070643 - Fatal error during installation.**
The log file contains:
