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!

I've have this exact same problem on both PC's here. One is a laptop, the other a desktop, with very different configs. They both started failing at the same udpate.
ScanNow completed with no problems
I tried:
net use s: \\routerShare\HD1 - S being my previously mapped drive that no longer allows access
System error 1312 has occurred.
A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.
Same error it gives me in windows more or less.
If I use a drive letter that isn't mapped:
System error 67 has occurred.
The network name cannot be found.
I couldn't get net share to work either
Also I tried this on the cmd line:
\\routershare\hd1
The request is not supported.
My desktop PC is about as vanilla as you can get and it's showing the same problems. There have been numerous people reporting this on my other thread, so I am sure it's more widespread than just my PC.
Thanks for the tips and ideas but I'm still stuck without working USB router access.
pblagay, just looked again. Of course it will not work. You are using 'ROUTERSHARE', but it is 'READYSHARE'. That is the default, unless you changed it on the READYSHARE tab in BASIC? If you did, are all the shares using ROUTERSHARE? Of course I assume you've set the WORKGROUP name correctly too.
