Player Version#: Web UI

Years back an old friend shared his plex library with me, which I’ve been unable to remove.  
I do not see it in “Manage Library Access” or “Authorised Devices” what am I missing here?

Does your friend’s account show up at [https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/friends](https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/friends)

if so can you click on them then choose library access from the menu to see if you can leave the server there.
