Plex Media Server Manual Update

Just installed Plex Media server on my WD EX2 Ultra running OS5. When I opened the Plex Media Server there is a message that I need to manually update the server, How do I perform a manual update of the. I use a PC running Windows 11?

Server Version#:1.26.2.5797

Player Version#:1.64.2.3546-5107ec40

You can download the appropriate PMS package from our downloads page. https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/

Then from the Ultra’s Web UI, there should be an option to manually install apps. Use that to find the downloaded file and hit install.

Edit - To be clear, this is needed to install PMS Beta. If you don’t want to you change the setting in Web to not notify you of beta updates. I believe WD only publishes the public version through their store, so you can just wait until those are available.
