Raidar 6.0 on Windows 10
After running the "Installer" (RAIDar.exe) the program requests opening the firewall for access and then the application starts. What seems to be missing is the creation of icons/shortcuts/start menu...
I could put the installer file (RAIDar.exe) in a folder and create a shortcut to it, or place the fie on my desktop but...
The point of my post is that the "Installer" doesn't seem to be working.
Hi TOMA1,
Was the PC user login used have admin rights? Tried this on a Windows 10 PC and never had a problem.
Kind regards,

Yes. I tried it on two machines.
Hi TOMA1,
As a follow-up to further isolate the problem, have you tried to download again the RAIDar 6.0 installer then try to install again on your Windows 10 PC/s? Also, if there are software firewall/s or anti-virus runngin on your WIndows 10 PC/s, kindly try to disable it then install RAIDar 6.0

Yes, I have done those things repeatedly.
The only sign of anything happening with the installer is the creation of %user%\Appdata\Local\RAIDar\RAIDar.exe 1064kb.
Assuming this is the executable for the program, yet no icons/shortcuts/start menu items.
Vs. RAIDar 4.3.8 creation of "Programs Files(x86)\Netgear ReadyNAS\..." and creation of icons/shortcuts/start menu items
