Before actually restoring, print a clear summary and ask for confirmation:

echo "About to restore Plex from:"
echo "  Backup: $(basename "$tgz_file")"
echo "  To    : ${Plex_Data_Path}/Plex Media Server"
read -r -p "This will overwrite existing Plex data. Continue? [y/N] " answer
case "${answer,,}" in
    y|yes) ;;
    *) echo "Restore aborted by user." |& tee -a "${Log_File}"; exit 0 ;;
esac
