ReadySHARE Windows 10 + KB3189866
Windows 10 cumulative update KB3189866 breaks readyshare. :smileysurprised:
Uninstall it if you can't access your readyshare folder.

Problem solved.
The solution below absolutely worked for me!
The one thing to say is that when you create the Windows Credential - you must enter a user name and password, and...
1. I had to configure readyshare itself to allow read and write access to a username - i selected admin.
2. The windows credential required the router username "admin" and the password for admin. I tried my windows username and password, and i was able to connect to map the drive, but not open the contents of it. With admin and the password, i was able to get it to work!

>web credentials and windows credentials
>head to windows credentials and add a new windows credential

>your windows user name in the second line
>your windows password in the third line

>good luck

Same here. R7000, a WD Elements and a WD My Password drive which can not be accessed from both a laptop with Windows 10 and a desktop with Windows 10. Started about yesterday or the day before that. Got the Windows update about 9/15. Upgraded the firmware of the R7000 but with no positive result. I can access both devices with my iPhone, iPad and AppleTV 4.
In the proces of recreating a connection on a Windows device I created a second link to one of the drives. This extra link was visible in the Apple devices but failed to work.
