How I got apt update and install to work (with Debian Jessie retired)
OK, so I started off creating my own local Debian repository. Not recommended -- it's a lot of work. But with a lot of Googling and experimenting, I finally got apt to work using an online source. ...
I loged in and this what shows me :
but the file you mentioned ( apt.conf )
where.i should copy it ?
here is a look in the folder apt.conf.d :
As stated in the very first message of the thread "Then you need to create /etc/apt/apt.conf with the following content:" So you put it in /etc/apt.
My apologies
as I was directed to the above post without going through the whole post
so as I understand I just have to replace the file I downloaded ( sources.list ) over existing on NAS version?
and Create a folder (apt)
to copy the file apt.conf in it
then the ability to upload app will work ?
nothing els to do ?

I suggest renaming the sources.list that is already in the folder to sources.list.orig
Also rename apt.conf.d to apt.conf.d.orig - as that was added in 6.10.10.
Then copy the modified sources.list and apt.conf into the folder.
After that, I'd reboot the NAS.

You also need to downgrade back to 6.10.9 to restore the upload function in the web ui. If you haven't done that yet, do it before you apply these modifications.
I would like to thank both StephenB and Sandshark
for their solutions and effort they put in this forum your contributions are tremendous
I solved the upload issue and I manage to upload the Plex app
I hope there is a button in setting to turn off the update OS for good and for now on
it must not be updated for good .because it keeps popping up when you log in to admin page .
