Your format generates file paths that start with Z:\C:\ which makes no sense as a Windows file path:

Looks like you have configured FileBot to use Episode Order: Date and Title. If you use Episode Order: Date and Title then {plex} and {s00e00} and so on will give the SxE numbers for your selected Episode Order.

I think I like it this way but used to want to skip the C: cause it's a lot of clicks but I can't get it to do that and change both folders and files.

If you want to move / organize files into Z:\Media\Movies and Shows then you must use the following custom format, because what you see is what you get:
