The latest update: PlexMediaServer-1.15.6.1079-78232c603-x86_64.spk
removed Plex as an Administrator. This resulted in “Content Unavailable” and content unplayable even if the file and drive connections are valid.

To fix this issue, re-add permission for Plex as “Allow” & “Full Control”.

  1. Use File Station and select your library folder.
  2. Right library folder then click properties.
  3. Click Create button. Select “plex” from drop down list.
  4. Click inside the dialog box to close the drop down list.
  5. Click all permissions then click ok.
  6. Close the File Station and verify “Content Unavailable” no longer appears and content playback enabled again.

MODERATOR ADDENDUM

This is not the best or easiest action. It also defeats the entire purpose of IMPROVING the protection of your media.

Simply add permission to the share in Control Panel - Shared Folders as Trumpy outlines below.
