I’m trying to configure a Plex server on another device in my network. My Windows 10 Home system is fully updated and doesn’t use a homegroup. I need to connect the media drive from my main PC so I can access it without transferring files manually. The issue is that my main machine recognizes the Plex server but not the drive itself, even though I’ve enabled sharing on the drive inside the computer. I’m unsure how to set this up correctly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Connect the device by typing its name into the file explorer (substitute "computer" with your Plex server's name)

This should prompt you to enter a username or password, then verify whether a network folder is reachable.
