Certainly it isn't changing the file permissions or network access controls on the NAS. It has to be something it is doing on the PC.
Do you have windows credentials for the NAS saved in the PC Credentials Manager? Make sure you have two credentials saved (one for the IP address, and the other for the hostname). Put in the username and password for a NAS user account. You can test this with the NAS admin account if you wish (and you can use that long term, though it does give more access rights than a normal user account).
Are you leaving the hosts configuration of the network access on the NAS blank? (look on the share setting wheel, then network access, and click "hosts" on the left). The PC might be presenting a different IP address to the NAS when NORD is running.
Maybe also go to the file permissions tab for the share, and check the "grant rename and delete privileges" box. The text does target AFP/NFS - but I suggest trying it anyway.
