This means that your server was ousted from your user account.  
You need to reclaim it.  
See [You need to reclaim your server, but don't dare to touch the Windows Registry](https://forums.plex.tv/t/you-need-to-reclaim-your-server-but-dont-dare-to-touch-the-windows-registry/809720/1)  
Follow it closely.

Afterwards, you need to reclaim the server as described in here: [New Claiming Requirement for Windows](https://forums.plex.tv/t/new-claiming-requirement-for-windows/839096/1)

I only know TP-Link as a router manufacturer, not as an ISP.
