Can't find C drive or admin related folders
I'm starting to regret my choice in NAS, maybe I should've gone for a more user-friendly (beginner) one :x I used to be able to see the admin related folders such as C volume etc but now I can't....
To access the C share you need to login to CIFS as "admin"
If you login as "admin" you can then access the files
To disconnect from the NAS:
If unsure what the sharename is that you need to disconnect, you can simply type "net use" (no quotes) in the command prompt to take a look at what are the active connections.
Also if your connections are only to the NAS, then you can simply use:
net use * /delete
which will disconnect all connections to network shares that were listed when you typed "net use" (no quotes).
You can also then use the net use command to login as admin
If you login as "admin" you can then access the files
