Trying to be quick; new issue showed up; running plex server on Win 11 on a 2T SSD drive; I create a folder on a storage drive (WD 4T) then I drop the movies in. File name is set up as this; Name S01E08 then extension as I always have. I then create the library on the server and drop plex collects the files. They don’t show up and it says library is empty. I have been doing this for years without problems. Win 11 is up to date as is plex.
That means it is a tv show.
Is the library of the type “TV Shows”?
Are the files in a folder structure as required for tv shows?

(Don’t omit any folder levels, nor insert additional ones,)
Yes; a tv series; file structure is the same as all my folders containing tv and or movies. and they are stored on the same drive ( at the moment)
That is irrelevant, if it’s wrong.
An old saying on the forums.
It works till the day it don't
Tv shows need to be in their own Library and folder, Movies need to be in their own Library and folder. Simple

Everything I have, like any tv series are in their own folder by name. No mixing at all.
