Cannot gain Admin Access NV+ (SMBv1 issue?)
I have just had a new laptop (windows11) and noticed that i cannot access my old NV+ NAS. I type in the IP address in files and i get an error code 0x80004005. I can see it in Netgear ReadyNas RAIDar...

I believe it is related to Windows 11 as it no longer runs SMBv1??
No. It is because the browsers have deprecated TLS 1.0.
More info on what to do about it is here:
Basically gain access with IE mode in Edge, or download an older version of FireFox (94.0.2 works).
You can then modify a file in the NAS to allow you to access frontview with http (not https) if you like. Instructions for that are in the linked thread.
FWIW, Windows 11 will run SMB 1/CIFS, but you do need to manually enable that in "turn windows features on or off".
i have tried IE mode in Edge and Tried Firefox (the version suggested) and still no joy? can anyone offer any assistance please as this old NAS's are my back up and i need access.
Many Thanks in advance.
