Snapshot recovery mode does not give destination pop-up

As per OS 6.4.1 Software Manual and Knowledge Base (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/23403), restoring individual files and folders should prompt for destination.  I am not getting the destination pop-up, but the system is doing *something* immediately, as I do get this pop-up:

 

  • The selected file is being restored now.

...and then this alert:

 

  • File restore from snapshot has completed

 

Why no destination pop-up, and where is the file being restored to?!

 

ReadyNAS 104

firmware: 6.4.2

      Thank you for the reply.

       

      Sorry for the broken link -- the document you correctly linked is the one I was referring to.

       

      As for the "pop-up" destination dialog that we're discussing, I don't think it's a browser-level-pop-up-into-a-new-window that can be blocked by the browser, but rather an in-page thing, just like all the other "pop-up" elements in the ReadyNAS admin page interface (which are all working fine for me).

       

      Nevertheless, I did try your suggestion and tried three different browsers (Chrome, Firefox, & Safari), all with their built-in pop-up blockers disabled -- same result:  the immediate in-page "pop-up" that says "The selected file is being restored now." 

       

      Any other suggestions?

      thanks,
