Plex has lost all my media.

I'm not sure how I did it either, but as I've been using FreeNAS since version 8 something, maybe when I setup my shares etc, it was done then. Of course I was as green as grass at the time with FreeNAS!

I ran the 2 commands in a TrueNAS shell, but I still was not able to edit the permissions of the said folder.
Thanks again.

If "said folder" is /mnt/WinShare/, then that's expected. We do not permit changing permissions at this level (with the understanding that users should create datasets and share those out).

although I did uninstall the Plex plugin and installed again

Did you leave everything at the defaults?

The fact that logging in via app.plex.tv consistently worked, but not when using the server's local IP address directly, hints at a Plex/security issue.

(Greyed out / missing / unavailable libraries and media.)

Yes I did, just left everything as they were before the uninstall.

Thanks for your time and help.
