Thank you so much for the direction to 6.10.6!
The NAS self-update function tells me it is up to date at 6.10.5, and a reboot didn't change that, so I didn't think to check for a manual update. Maybe I'm blind and missed some note about the error, but if not, is there a place we can give feedback to Netgear that if a ClamAV deprecation causes error messages to start being thrown, it would be nice if they put a note for the reason in the alerts section of their support page (assuming they can't get the new OS version rolled out to the self-update feature before the deprecation occurs, which would be even better!) It's not like I usually feel a huge need to upgrade to the newest OS right away, but when error messages suddenly start popping up I'd like to think I'm not the only one that finds it a bit concerning.
Thanks again for your wonderful support!
