Creating a folder with restricted access
Hello everyone from a relative NetGear newbie. I have an RN104, which is fitted with 4 x 3Tb WD RED drives, configured as one large RAID5 volume. It has firmware version 6.4.2. The device is...

Many thanks everyone for your help!
Clearly the issue lies at the Windows client end, rather than the RN104.
By using the 'Stored Usernames and Passwords' list in Windows 10 (C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe keymgr.dll, KRShowKeyMgr), I've managed to set the correct level of access on the 'Restricted' share I'd set up on NELLY.
I think this issue is now resolved.
Thanks again :smileyhappy:

Hi jak0lantash,
Many thanks for your help. I do have the Media Center recordings backed-up on a couple of USB drives.
I'm still not having any success with this. This is what I've done:
Created a new user called Superuser and set their password to password
Created a brand new share called Restricted
Opened the settings window for the new share
Clicked the Network Access tab
I unticked READ/WRITE access for the Everyone user group
I ticked READ/WRITE access for Superuser. The only other user with any other access is the default Admin user, who also has read/write access
Clicked OK
I haven't opened the File Permissions tab at all.
When I open \\NELLY in Windows file explorer in Windows 10, the Restricted share appears. Clicking it brings up a window asking me to enter my network credentials. I enter Superuser and the password, but I just get an error message telling me that \\NELLY\Restricted is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource...
It also states that: Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again
I've also tried using nelly\Superuser as the username, which causes the domain to change to NELLY, but I still can't get access.
I'm still baffled... Any ideas?
Thanks,
James

Hi jpm102,
In addition to jak0lantash's suggestion, you may want to try this as well.
1. Reset the permission of the 'NELLY' share.
2. Run CMD (command prompt) and enter the command (net use /delete \\Nelly\NELLY) *without the parentheses
3. Access again the 'NELLY' share and it should prompt for a user credential.
4. Enter the 'Parents' login and your good to go.
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,
BrianL
