Copy problems from PC to NAS

Hi,

 

Few weeks ago I set the NAS all seemed well

 

Today I tried to copy a file from PC folder to NAS folder using windows explorer.

 

I got an error saying I needed permissions to copy

 

I can copy from NAS to PC

 

I can delete files on the NAS from windows.

 

Only copy does not work.

 

I have not changed any permissions or settings.

 

Not sure if this is a windows thing or NAS thing

 

An help appreciated

 

Thanks

  • I tracked it down further

     

    I was able to perfrom file operations onthe main folder

     

    I was not able on any of the sub folders

     

    I reset permission - it seemed to fix the problem
