Can't find backup "path" for nv+ v2 in dashboard

Hey

So i just purchased a nv+ v2 and im trying to set up some backups.
I have created a new user on my w7 laptop and tried a backup that is successful:
Job: Pierre Laptop
Protocol: cifs
Source: //Pierrelaptop/testd
Destination: [backup]/Pierre


`/job_001//.DS_Store' -> `/backup/Pierre/.DS_Store'
`/job_001//test' -> `/backup/Pierre/test'
`/job_001//test/.DS_Store' -> `/backup/Pierre/test/.DS_Store'
`/job_001//test/testfile.txt' -> `/backup/Pierre/test/testfile.txt'
`/job_001//test/unetbootin-windows-578.exe' -> `/backup/Pierre/test/unetbootin-windows-578.exe'

So all is fine there but when i want to backup something that is located at //Pierrelaptop/testd/test/* and skip what is in "test" i get:
Cannot connect to share because of an incorrect network name or permission was denied.
Code: 7077010012

Manual says:
If you select a backup destination that requires a path, use a forward slash (/) to
separate directories, for example:
/<share name>/<folder name>

Any ideas on how to solve this?
I have created a user for readynas on the w7 machine too that have access to the folders.

Also noticed that the Browse... button is greyed out for selecting the path in any way i try...
