"Folder in Use" ReadyNAS 10400
Hi,
I have been try to edit some folder names on a ReadyNAS share using PC / Win 7 /Explorer. One edit works then I go to the next folder and get the message "Folder is in use or File in Folder is in use".
It seems if I go into the dashboard and change a setting in the share in an attempt to resolve this it works for the next edit I try then I get the error message on the next folder I try to edit.
Any Suggestions?
Geoff

- I Googled the issue "file locked on NAS" and came across a solution in the Synology forums. It seems to work in my case.
In Win Explorer select Organize/Layout and uncheck details pane. This closes the pane with the folder icon/thumbnail.
Just did this and edited 20 folder names without a glitch. Turned details pane back on and issue reappeared. - Just tried with the gpedit set to caching enabled, editing ok with "detail pane" unchecked.
