In the same boat after I installed windows 10 from scratch.
Here's a workaround I found, but definately not a solution for me (post 3)

User account cannot access home folder x, but can access all other shares, just not its home dir.
Admin account cannot even connect to the \\ipadress, but it works on the admin web page.
Thanks for the tip though :)

I've had the same problem. I can restore the connecting by disconnecting my mapped drive (I map a certain folder to y:\) and then remapping it.

Did you change admin default password?
if use default admin password, admin account can't access \\nasip,

I'm not using the default password and I'm using the same one I set up a long time ago.
Frankly, I was thinking it was the latest windows upgrade. After all, I can see everything on the NAS from the NAS or, as I recall, even from the network URL (vs the mapped drive. I could be wrong about that but it will have to fail again for me to find out.)
Anyway, after seeing this post I guess it's the NAS. Do you agree?
