Server Version#: 1.19.5.3035

Hello,  
I’ve installed the most recently Plex Media Server version and even my host computer cannot find the plex media server. What should I Do?  
I’m using windows 10 and [http://localhost:32400/web](http://localhost:32400/web) to acess the server.  
I’m not running any kind of VPN as well and I’m using the same account for all my systems.

Best regards,  
Fernando C.

Silly questions first:  
Have you verified the Plex Media Server is actually running (e.g. Plex icon showing in your system tray)?
