Did you perhaps install it twice? It won't show up in the installed add-on list, and if you do install it a second time I believe it will actually un-install itself.

Out of doubt, I installed it once again with success.
On NAS reboot confirms installation
But I still don't have access to the root of the server
C:\WINDOWS\system32>ssh root@192.168.1.208
ssh: connect to host port 22: Connection refused

Also, I am wondering if you have internet security software running on the PC. If you do, try disabling it.

I'm not using the default password
But since I can't log in, it doesn't ask for a passwordI created new rule in Windows Firewall and
I released port 22 for all protocols
I enabled the ip 192.168.1.208Disabled Avira Antivirus scan and turned off Malware Bites
second try: i disabled the firewall too
I still have access denied on port 22C:\WINDOWS\system32>ssh root@192.168.1.208

But this might be Avira - not sure what package you have, but they offer internet security software, and not just AntiVirus. Was it completely disabled? I don't think malwarebytes will get in the way - I have had the "premium trial" on some of my PCs, and was able to use ssh on them.
Most of these packages have logs, so you could also look at them for any signs that they are blocking the port.

Hello Stephen!
I did everything in my power and I couldn't get to the root of the NAS to update
I'm a photographer and I use Duo to store my work (I'm the type that doesn't store it in the cloud), just because of the security of XRaid mode, I don't connect to it via the internet, I use it only as local storage.
So I'll settle for accessing Frontview via old Firefox (I'll save the installation for future needs)
If you have a suggestion for another type of safe file storage, you can suggest
Thanks for your prompt attention. - StephenBMar 13, 2023Guru

You could purchase a new NAS (Netgear stopped selling your model back in 2011).
You won't find a new ReadyNAS though, so you'd need to switch to a different vendor. Synology, or perhaps Asustor???

Hello!
It seems to me that this Synology DS418 is a good option at an affordable cost

I've never owned a synology, so can't really give a personal recommendation.
But this would be reasonable. You could also look at 2-bay models (getting larger disks to compensate).
