discussion Plex setting up

[480p]

Hello
I have a question about how to setup plex in my pc.
I installed the plex server app.
But when I click to open it, nothing happens.

Are you sure it's not launching and running in the background? Access is done through a web browser:

What didn't work? There was nothing at the internal IP address referenced in the link I provided?

In a web browser put localhost:32400 (or you can use the IP of the pc that hosts plex)

Make sure you're installing Plex Media Server, not plex client/player.

Launch it and it should be hidden in your toolbar. Right click the icon and click open (or whatever plex calls it). That should launch your default browser that lets you set up libraries, etc.

I opened plex from the toolbar.
But screen says initialising plex media server.
