Help for home folders and sharing connections
RN314- OS 6.2.4 Windows 7 Pro So far, I have not created any additonal user accounts and only have "admin". The home folder for "admin" is viewable from the Shares tab of the Admin Page. ...

I resolved the problem. I went to the "Access" tab of the "Home Folders" and turned the SMB protocol OFF, then turned it back ON---and ouila', the "admin" subfolder under the "Home Folders" folder appeared and is functional to upload to, and now seen in Windows File Manager as I expected it should.
I'm thinking I may have accidentaly deleted it some months back that I don't remember when I was learning my way around and setting up other share folders. I simply don't remember, but all is well now.
