    My solution:
    - Launch the "Credential Manager" in Windows 10 (search for it in the start menu)
    - Open "Windows Credentials"
    - Click "Add a Windows credential"
    - Internet or Network Address: \\servername (replace with the Netbios-name of your cloudstation, or use IP)
    - User name: servername\username (replace with netbios-name and the username you are connecting with)
    - Password: Self-explanitory

    In theory I should not need to connect with a username/password, but just using my admin credentials (same as i use when i log on to the admin-panel for the NAS) it worked.
