Folder Missing In ReadyCloud?

I have a folder that I copied to my NAS music folder named ".38 Special".  If I browse to that music folder on Windows 10 using "network" I can see the folder (although it is grayed), open it and play any song.  When I look at the music folder in ReadyCloud, .38 Special is missing.  Is that because of the leading "." in the name?  Does Linyx not allow this while Windows does?

  • Yes the dot "." makes the folder a hidden folder.  If you can see the folder from your Windows computer, try renaming it without the dot and you should then see it.
