I installed PLEX on my D: drive that has plenty of room for everything PLEX. However, when I look at my C: drive. the directory path \AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Metadata is up to 1.2 terabytes. How can I move this to the D: drive so my C: drive is free for my virtual machines and other things I need to run on the RAID drive D: not my SSD for BOOT drive C:. I looked through the KB from PLEX .
The article asked me to follow these steps.
- Quit/exit your Plex Media Server
- Copy the contents of the Plex data directory, which is here by default:
%LOCALAPPDATA%Plex Media Server
to the new location, for example:D:PlexPlex Media Server
- Open the Windows Registry Editor (
regedit.exe
) - Navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwarePlex, Inc.Plex Media Server
- Double-click on the
LocalAppDataPath
value and enter the new path, for example:D:PlexPlex Media Server
- Restart your Plex Media Server
However, I opened regedit and do not even see the LocalAppDataPath in there to set. My guess is I should create the key but would like to get some guidance.
