The update is not “broken”.
In 1.20.2, which Engineering is working on now, the PlexData share will be completely silent unless you wish to use it.
To clear this “error” message you’re seeing, which is why I changed it for 1.20.2, is to
- Stop Plex
- Control Panel - Shared Folders
- Remove PlexData (and the contents – which is just a symbolic link)
- Create the share anywhere you like. Assign any access permissions you wish but remember this is intended for your use only and not for others who may be logging into the machine.
- Start PMS
After 1.20.2 is released, you can again remove the PlexData share again.
I recommend reading the FAQ. This is what you get or will be giving up if PlexData is removed.
