Plex Server quit working

The Plex Server app on my laptop stopped working. When I click on the icon to open it, it appears to be launching, but nothing ever happens. I tried rebooting, uninstalling/re-installing, repairing, etc. I don’t know what else I can do, and I didn’t find any articles about it.

I don’t know what version it is, because I can’t launch it. I just know it’s the latest version because I recently downloaded it.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Please be aware that launching the Plex Media Server app does not give you a UI. PMS runs in the background. Check the system tray to see if it’s there. That will indicate if it’s running. To administer your server, you need to run Plex Web. https://support.plex.tv/articles/200288666-opening-plex-web-app/

Okay, I just launched it and it is in the tray. I should have checked that before. For some reason I thought there was a UI where you can setup directories and folders of what content you want on the Plex. I don’t see any way to do that on the Plex app on the tv, so how would I do it?

Thanks for the help.

See my earlier comment.
