ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus connection to Windows 10 File System
I'm a longtime user (first time poster!) of ReadyNAS. Started on the DUO and moved to the ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus that I have been running for years. Very minor things have happened and I have manage...

Thanks StephenB
I looked into those settings and found them not checked! I checked them and restarted. Getting different messages and non can not get as far along in mapping a share. It now fails at the user/password entey saying "A specified login session does not exist. It may already have been terminated." This is at the enter network credentials when mapping the share.
Thanks again for the support

I also tried the powershell activiation again using:
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName smb1protocol
and that came back with the same error about "The requested operation needs elevation." At line:1 char:1

Run powershell as administrator.
Also, you can try mapping a share from the windows cmd line (command prompt). Something like
net use * /delete
net use t: \\nas-ip-address\sharename /user:username password
The first command terminates any open network sessions (and will dismount any shares already mapped to drive letters) - useful for testing, but not something you'd do when mapping a second share.
BTW, a workaround is to enable NFS on the NAS, and install the Windows NFS client.

You rock. That CMD code now worked to mount the drive t: under my PC. I don't care where it is just as long as I can map it!! Thanks for also catching that I didn't run powershell as admin! I did that first and run teh script then followed the CMD outlined.
I still don't understand why windows 10 will not "see" the shares as it did before but I'm a small user in a large pond and can live with this for now! Thanks StephenB
Cheers

You should go into the windows credential manager, and enter a "windows credential" for the NAS (using the nas address, username, and password that you just used on the command line). That should make it easier the next time you reboot (windows will automatically use that credential for the NAS in the future).
