I might do that if a factory default seems too much work (In my case that would man returning to 6.3.5), but I might use the opportunity to clean out the mess I've made the last couple of years :smileyhappy:

Erm, thats 6.2.5 off course...:smileylol:

And no luck putting back 6.2.5. The admin page is unaccessible and password recovery disabled. So I probably will have to factory default the thing.
One thing changed going back to 6.2.5 from 6.4.0 and that is that the SMB-shares are available now in read-write mode. But that isn't enough to mkake the system usable.
Ah well: As I said befgore it's an 'nice' way to be forced to clean out two years of data. I have a good backup (even less important stuff is now backed up) and starting afresh is something I might have wanted to do anyway.after such a period.
