I need to rollback from the latest Plex update

Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops

Rolling back on Windows works as follows:

  1. note down your current Plex Server software version

  2. Stop Plex Server using its tray icon.

  3. uninstall Plex Server with the regular ‘Apps’ control panel of Windows. Do not use 3rd party ‘uninstaller’ software like Revo etc. Do not use Registry cleaners/optimizers.

  4. go to your Plex data folder.
    There is a subfolder in there, named Updates which will contain previous versions of the installer .exe

  5. execute the installer for the previous software version

  6. reboot Windows (just a safety measure, it may work without rebooting as well)
