2. Do you have a password set on the PC?
3. Are the user id and password the same on both? (Ignore if no password set on NAS.
4. What anti-malware suite are you running? If no suite, what individual applications (FWIW I am using Avast! and SuperAntiSpyware, although have used AVG in the past with no problems).
5. Have you tried a direct connection?
6. You placed your document folder on the NAS rather than individual data folders? Did you establish the Documents folder with Win7 on this machine or another machine?
1. Yes I have a password set on the NAS, I can use ReadyNAS Remote on my other Win 7 laptopn plus all my other devices including via an FTP connection.
2. No password on the user account for the desktop [the desktop is the one that is not working].
3. I had BitDefender 2012 installed, I thought this may be the issue so I uinstalled BitDefender and RNR and rebooted. I also disabled all Windows Firewall and Security options. Still the same issue.
5. I am able to connect to the NAS's admin settings from the desktop [via the IP address, I have dyndns address for the NAS for my FTP connections so I can also connect via the url that redirects to the IP]
6. No, there are 2 shares on the NAS and as I said it works from every other device.
I am finding it very confusing because it was working for a while with no problems. I did clean my C: with an application called CCleaner to remove some temp files etc and free some hard disk space. I am wondering if it removed a temp file for RNR? I have reinstalled RNR so I thought it would reload all its required files.
