Search Option not Visible in Settings

Running firmware 6.9.4, so up-to-date.

I'm trying to turn on Search, so I can search files on my NAS.

I've followed the instructions ->System->Settings->Services, but there is no search option to enable under settings?

Any assistance appreciated.

    You should see a "File Search" button - on my NAS it is the last service on the second row - right next to AntiVirus.

     

    Are you saying that isn't shown on your system->settings->services list?

      FWIW, I see it on my RN202 in system->settings->services even though it is disabled on system->overview.  However, that NAS is running 6.9.4.

       

      Looking at haigha's screenshot - the only service missing seems to be File Search.

       

      Is this the RN316?  If not, what NAS model?

        Not sure on your model yet, but files search is not available to the 100 series units.
