I can’t open the Plex server on my new Mac m2. I have tried reinstalling, I made sure my Mac is up to date. Just pops up on the menu bar and closes immediately. Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks

I wrote a script a year ago for the Mac called `delpms` to completely remove it.  
I was doing multiple installs a week for testing.  
I haven’t tried it recently, but you can have a look at what I did [In this post.](https://forums.plex.tv/t/mac-pms-wont-open/824408/5)  
Things may have changed but there’s a Plex Support Article you can find.
