Plex SQLite tool

I have an F2-210 NAS with TOS 4.2.23. I mostly use it to run a Plex Media Server.
Plex is stopping during maintenance periods and I suspect a possible corrupt database.
Plex support suggests using their SQLite tool which for a Linux system should be found at "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex SQLite"

Using the File Manager on TOS Desktop I can see the database files under "Volume #1/user/plex" but I do not seem to be able to see "/usr" or indeed anything at the root level as admin.Is there any way of doing this please?

First, enable SSH in the Control Panel.

First method: Use terminal software to log in to TNAS and run commands to view the directory at /mnt/md0/application/plexmediaserver.

Second method: Alternatively, install WinSCP software and use its graphical interface to locate the directory at /mnt/md0/application/plexmediaserver.

Thansk, I'll give that a try.
