Initialization failed - error code -3
I can't get the ReadyNAS Remote to work on Windows 7 Enterprise Ed x64 (it worked perfectly on another XP x86 machine of mine). The suggestion to load Leaf ontop on Remote I found on this thread......

Hi everyone,
I was having the same issue on Windows 8.1 - I has tried installing as an administrator and it didn't work, also tried running the program as an administrator it didn't work.
In the end the fix that worked for me was to copy the file FwHookDrv.sys into C:\Windows\System32\drivers and this worked. This file was missing (don't know why the setup program didn't copy it) and it was preventing a service from starting.
Hope this helps!
