Remote on Windows 8.1 | Error code -3
I'm getting this error after installing windows 8.1 is there a fix for this or will i have to wait until it gets updated to officially support 8.1?
I have installed this on 2 machines now as follows;
First, uninstall Readynas Remote (I use Windows key, X; Programs and Features and select Readynas and then click uninstall.
Download Readynas Remote from https://remote.readynas.com/download.html (I googled Readynas Remote)
Run program - on my system it is ReadyNASRemoteSetup_w8_v1.6.5.22.exe
Get to install and you will see a screen "Installing Firewall driver via plugin fwleaf.sys (amd64). I suspect amd64 is because I have a 64 bit system.
Then a second box pops up - Files Needed - The file 'fwleaf.sys' in Netgear Firewall Driver Disc is needed. Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\NETGEAR ReadyNAS\Remote\adapter\x64 (on my system). When you click OK is should install perfectly.
Good luck
