ReadyNAS NV+ V2

Windows 11 Home

Have run RAIDar but couldn't find the NAS. Someone suggested Java which I tried but couldn't get an exe file to run it. After opening som exe files in the bin folder I can see the NAS, shows everything ok, drives good and active. I get the dashboard type thing but still cannot access the actual drives, just get the error above. Any help would be gratefully received

    I am a bit confused on your info, as you say are you seeing the dashboard even though you can't connect????

     

    Are you stuggling with Windows File Explorer (or Finder)?  Or is the problem with the browser?

     

    What browser are you using?

    Are you doing this on a new PC?

    When was the last time you tried to access the NAS?

      Using chrome, 5 year old laptop. I get the dashboard up but as soon as I try to access the drives by clicking on browse I get the above error. I get a list of the films I have on the hard drive on my smart tv (list but no access) but nothing on my laptop

        Browsing using Chrome (via the dashboard)?

        Or browsing with Windows File Manager????

         

        What firmware is the NAS running?

        Have you enabled the SMB/CIFS 1.0 client in the windows settings ("turn windows features on or off").

         

        Can you post a screen shot of the error?
