Windows 10 and ReadyCLOUD windows app
Hey All I've just finsihed upgrading to Windows 10 and noticed that the readycloud app wasnt present on start up. I loaded the app from the start menu and it loaded. However after 1 min, it ...
- Jimo2012, can you give the ReadyCLOUD beta a shot?

There were some driver changes that we had to make for Windows 10 and that fix is in that build.
Hello
I loaded the beta version when I updated to windows 10 and it worked fine.
But, now since windows updates the app will not load properly. I have to uninstall and reinstall to make it work.
Otherwise on boot up it is greyed out and just disappears.
I also want to be able to start app manually but when installed it does not show up as a tile so you cannot close down and restrat when you want.
I have tried turning off firewall but this does not make any difference.
Look forward to your advice soon.
Must admit I haven't experienced that problem after having received and installed WIN10 updates. I installed WIN10 on a laptop that was running 8.1. Did you do the same, or was it an upgrade from WIN7?
I'm holding back from upgrading my main laptop which is running Win7 Ultimate as I'm reading and hearing about others experiencing problems / bugs in general, and I have to confess I don't find WIN10 that intuitive....at this point in time. I still prefer WIN7, so I'll stick with just the other laptop with the WIN10 O/S and use it as test and familiarisation machine for the time being.
P.S. Still not impressed with the WIN 'Start Menu' implementation, so have continued using 'Classic Shell' same as when I was running 8.1!
Something I've noticed happening from time to time after boot is the icon in the taskbar starting off greyed out, then turning purple whilst trying to initialise, then returning to grey again. This happens a few times, then the icon disappears after failing to initialise and sign in.
After a bit of digging around I discovered that whenever this happened it was due to the 'Readycloud HTTP Server' service not having started, despite it being set to 'Automatic'. Clicking on the 'Start' button and starting it would fix the problem.
As I said at the beginning, it doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, it's always due to this service not having started for some reason.
Just logged into the NAS and disabled readynas cloud. After I enabled the service again I still could not see the NAS

Because of this I rebooted the NAS in my last attempt to fix this. Failed :( Still cannot connect.
BUT: With my own computer (Windows 10) and with my Macbook air I never had any problems at all

As you can see it's working fine.
Hope someone can point me in the right direction here. Why are these 2 Windows 10 machines unable to see a registered device while my own Windows10 PC is working like a charm?
Thanks in advance!
