Credentials for backup from PC and laptop to ReadyNas 102

I have two computers - laptop and PC. Both have Windows 10. I need to make backup from laptop to ReadyNas and from PC to ReadyNas. It works properly, but there is one problem with PC which I can't solve. Backup is possibly only if sharing protected password is OFF in Windows. In laptop it works (I entered credentials)  but I can't find out what for credentials are there. Can anybody help me solve this problem?

    you chould be able to see the credential you are using in the laptop by running the windows credential manager.  You won't see the password of course, but you will see the username.

      Because on laptop it works and on my PC doesn't, so I tried in Credential manager to change step by step all logins, but my backup worked all the time. When I changed login in my backup job, it stopped working. So I do not know which credentials are really used by  backup to fix it in my PC.

        Is this a backup job on NAS?  Or a backup program running on the PC?  If the latter, what program is it?
