Hi Raja_Tahir
Yes, you need to set File access if you intend users to have read only access.
I encourage you to update to the latest version as this contains fixes and updates to better optimize the performance of the NAS.
I also encourage you to mark the post as Accepted Solution you think resolved the issue for other members to benefit from this.

Many Thanks Marc_V for your support. Issue has been resolved after resetting permissions and re-assigned rights to respective users.
But i have two Questions:
1. i only grant (Network Access), File access is currently assigned to everyone. Is it mandatory to assign (File access) to same user on that share where we grant him / her (Network Access).? Please see refernce screenshot
2. Currently my NAS firmware 6.9.1 and continously getting auto alert to upgrade it to 6.9.2. Is 6.9.2 a stable version? If yes then please confirmed so i can proceed its upgradation to latest Version.
