I had to re-partition my OS drive and restore from an image. OpenPlex/Plex Connect is not starting and says that the theme is corrupt, but when I try to reinstall the theme again (or any of the other default ones), it never finishes. OpenPlex v 0.5 OsX 10.12

I have deleted it from apps, now it won’t reinstall… no errors, etc… just seems to hang… my DNS servers are set to google.
