SMB Plus probably destroyed my 6.2.4 installation
Hi,
two days ago I tried the SMB Plus addon and after testing it I uninstalled. This uninstall came up with an error message. I ignored this error. Then I had to restart the machine and now my samba seems to be broken completely. I cannot browse some folders etc pp.
How do I reinstall 6.2.4 with the available image file? I don't want to update to 6.4.0 yet.
Please advise.
Best,
Campus
PS. this forum software really sucks... why do I have to give this a label to get a post preview? What is a label anyway?

Ok, found the right page to reinstall 6.2.4 and after that it was working again. The SMB Plus needs to be fixed anyway.

SMB Plus makes changes to an overrides file, so its functionality is very limited in the grand scheme of things. On uninstall of SMB Plus, the overrides file is not manipulated. On OS Reinstall, the overrides file is not touched, so I don't believe this was your problem.

Thanks for your explanation. Could you please point me to the override file so I can manually remove it from the machine?
Best,
Campus
