With all the negative things I’ve read about this new update, I am hesitant to install it and have TV recording problems that have been described, but the push implies I have no choice. So… I downloaded it and now it doesn’t seem to install on my Windows 10 server. Just spins and spins. The “try again” arrow on the left stops the process, but multiple retries (including new downloads) hasn’t helped. Any thoughts?
Mine is doing the same thing. says it downloaded it and it will never actually apply the update.
All you need to do is:
- Stop/quit/end Plex Server with the tray icon
- deinstall Plex Server with the regular ‘Apps’ control panel of Windows (do not use 3rd party ‘Uninstaller’ software like Revo etc.)
- for safety, reboot Windows
- download the installation exe of the newer version and install it
(If you want to install an older version of PMS, take a look into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Plex Media Server\Updates)
