Hi Everyone I’m running into an ongoing issue when I manually start a library update.  
Each time I do the update hangs on the same file. I’ve moved the folder where this file is located from a local hard drive (E:/) to a NAS (T:/), and even removed it all together, doing a library update each time, and it still hangs on the same file.

Some of what I read online makes it sound like it might be a DB issue so I ran the optimize DB within Plex, and no luck.

I seems however when a library update runs as a scheduled task, overnight, that it runs just fine.

I’ve attached my Plex logs, hoping someone can lend a hand.

Please let me know if there is anything that may be able to help
