Are database file names uploaded somewhere so I can see them? My drive was wiped and had a huge amount of media content I used with Plex. I’m seeing in another drive of mine that had Plex there are metadata files that show everything but the name of the file. I’ve looked everything through my account for some way to see my other computer’s info. Can anyone help me out?
Plex does not collect your filenames, so if your computer was wiped, that information is gone. PMS had an option to backup your database. If you had this enabled and was saving the backups somewhere else, then you could look there.

The name of your media files and the titles of the media were stored in the main database file which is located in the Plex data folder.
Unless you made a backup copy of this folder or this database file, you are out of luck, unfortunately.
