Player Version#:

All of the friends that I am sharing my library with show some oddities. On my end, it shows that I am sharing 20+ folders with them, even though there are only 3 folders available. On their end, they see multiple servers from my end, with only one being accessible. Please assist.

Some screenshots would be helpful because Plex doesn’t share “folders” it shares “libraries”. (Go to [https://app.plex.tv/desktop](https://app.plex.tv/desktop), click on the settings icon, then on the left, click on Users & Sharing, and then click on a particular user you’re sharing with.)

Any chance of a screenshot from one of your friends as well?

My friend found a section in the column that let him remove the extra servers. So that is fixed. Here is a screenshot of my friends list. I have 3 libraries. Movies, Music, and TV Shows. Anyone with more than 3 shared folders is an error.

Can you click on one of the users and post a screenshot of that?

Weed out older servers from your account.
