You could try installing the CreateMissingSharePaths add-on. Then delete the shares you want to delete via Frontview. This should remove the entries for the shares in /etc/frontview/samba/Shares.conf
In /etc/frontview/samba/addons you should delete the relevant entries from the addons.conf file and the conf files for the shares created by addons you want to delete such as "addons-config.conf"
Then reboot the NAS to verify the problem is fixed.
OK...Update
I went in SSH using Putty and deleted webroot.conf and addons-config.conf...that did that. By the way... the CreateMissingSharePath restored the "backup" folder
Now...the only thing that exists is "C" and "Home" showing up on my PC's Network Path; Ex; Readynas (NAS).
Well..I never saw the "C" and "Home" shares until I read something and then selected "User" from Radiator Security Mode. Changed it back to "Share" but "C" and "Home" remained. I haven't logged in any differently; like you stated as "admin" so I cant see whats happening there.
I appeciate all the help
