Thanks Stephen, Im logged into the ReadyNAS with admin credentials but i am not too sure how to do it using SMB (im a complete beginner with this stuff) is this an additional program i need to install to my PC (Windows 10), i have activated it in my settings if that is what you mean?

And after logging in to the admin page, if i go to the address \\READYNASIP\data\.apps to find the php.ini i get the following message "The requested URL /data/.apps was not found on this server."

You have said that the folder is hidden, is there a way i can unhide it?

Thanks again for your help.

You need to be using the admin credentials in file explorer (logging into the web browser as admin won't do it).

One way is to run cmd, and then

net use * /delete

net use t: \\READYNASIP\data\.apps /user:admin NASADMINPASSWORD

That will map the .apps folder to drive letter T on the PC. Note the first command just removes any existing SMB connections to the NAS - it doesn't delete anything.

I just tried as you explained above, and now im getting this error in Command Prompt

"System Error 86 has occured
The Specified Network Password is not correct"

im 90% sure the password i am using is correct as i can log into the web browser using the same password and username.

From looking around i found that System Error 86 is related to the 'LAN Manager Authentication Level".. I have no idea what it is or means. Any ideas?

  The username has to be admin for this to work. Also be very careful on the direction of the slashes.
  
  Does the time/date on the PC match the NAS?

    Sorry to 'hijack' this slightly, but I have just logged a similar post - apologies for that.
    The question I would ask is relevant, as it is
    'How do I use the find command when logged in as admin, in the root directory and want to pirnt ONLY the location of ALL php.ini files?'
    I used to do Linux years ago, and could (then) do this off the top of my head, but recently I am not as bright as I once was.
    Thanks in advance
