Cannot see the files Related to my User folder

To clarify: I think you are saying that you can access the NAS public folders but you cannot access the private home folders for each user?
Usually that means you aren't using the NAS admin password with windows explorer. You can set those credentials up in the windows credential manager.
Thnx for the fast replay, I will do this one the moment arriving home!
So setting those credentials up in the windows credential manager doesn´t need to be performed by the same device used to setup the folders/usernames/ and admin password?
Sorry sounds maybe like a stupid question, just not experienced with NAS devices and just want to understand how it works and learn from it :)

The Windows Credentials Manager is part of Windows - so it needs to be run on the client PCs accessing the NAS, not the NAS web ui.
It tells Windows what credentials to use when you access the NAS. By default Windows uses whatever username/password you used when you logged into windows.
Hi there,
I tried but did not solve the problem. I have now 2 other symptoms on top, I tried and used search bar in the windows explorer to find my missing user-folder and it was found and now displayed, clicking on it results in the following message:
Verify that you typed "FolderName1" correctly, and try again. Windows can´t find "\\NASname\FolderName1". The name might be misspelled.
Clicking Troubleshooting will result in: NASname exist but Windows can´t find "foldername1".
Error code: 0x80070035.
A few months ago I reininstalled windows on my main laptop, every thing was working after but the only thing changed was that my now missing user-folder was inside a new created share folder called home. Wondering if therfore now using this 2nd laptop the path to my user-folder is not correctly displayed and causing all of this?!
The 2nd thing is that one of the other share folder is giving my following error when I want to acces: Windows cannot access \\NASname\ShareFolder2. You do not have permission to access \\NASname\ShareFolder2. Contact your network administrator to request access.
I did not change anything concerning share permissions or passwords..
Getting really confusing for me and no idea what to do :(
P.S Do not understand why the Model is as Inappropriate Content reported, I bought a RND2000V2 and seperately 2 Hard disks..
