Hi tralfaz,

 

Welcome to the community.

 

I believe the problem is due to the major update of the OS from Debian 7 to Debian 8. I believe the app developers would need to make some adjustments as well. Please see link below for additional information:

 

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Community-Add-ons/Community-app-compatibility-with-ReadyNAS-OS-6-6-0/td-p/1140716

 

If your app is not listed, lets probably wait for some updates from the app developer.

 

 

Regards,

    Hi FramerV,

     

    thanks for the prompt response. The inability to remove the App concerned me because I was worried that it may have corrupted the new OS in some way, but so far no problems.

     

    I haven't used the Forum before as I really have not had any problems with the Netgear product as I just use it for what it was intended for and hadn't tried anything exotic. Sadly the first time I do it goes wrong so Murphy's Law Third Law of Computing is proven once again. :-)

     

    Appreciate the help,

      Hi tralfaz,

       

      You are welcome. Also, if you want the app to be removed; you may actually try to reach our support group. They could probably escalate it and have it removed via remote access.

       

      Contact NETGEAR Support

      Hi, I had the same problem with my NAS 204. I downloaded the .deb package from web https://apps.readynas.com/pages/?page_id=9

      Atfer a manual re-installation on my NAS the app worked properly and I was able to uninstall it

      Regards
