Wrong Plex Media Server folder #30

The Core Manager is storing Cores and updating RetroCores.xml in the folder:

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server

Plex, however, allows you to change this location by adding the following Registry Key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Plex, Inc.\Plex Media Server\LocalAppDataPath

I have my Plex AppData folder on a completely different SSD drive but the Core Manager is still saving data to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server

Had a peek at the code and saw there is code there to enter a Plex Media Server folder. Went to the old folder which was located at C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server and renamed it. I can now manually choose the correct folder. The issue is that if there is a folder C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server then the app picks that even if it's not the correct Plex folder.
