I deleted the default Available Network Folders

If this has been covered, I can't find it, so apologies. But, I have deleted my default Available Network Folders, and I don't know how to restore it. I have hit the master reset, but it's still gone. Can someone please point me in the right direction to restore it? Many thanks.

Re: I deleted the default Available Network Folders

Well, I thought I did.

 

I did another hard reset. Redid all my settings, which I had saved, re-inserted the USB, and it's now on the network. I don't know what it was. But all is right with the network now. Thank you for all the help.

Re: I deleted the default Available Network Folders

Are you talking about configuration file? What is default network folder?

Yes, the configuraton file. Here is what I have:

It should look like this (captured from the online manual):

How can I restore the default one?

@milqueto Is the USB still connected to the router? Have you tried unplugging and re-plugging the USB drive?

How about using a different USB drive, will it still not show anything under Available Network Folders?

@ElaineM I have tried different USB devices, and none of them can be detected on the network. It cannot be detected by the desktop nor the laptop. After I deleted that file shown above, I can't get any device to see the USB.

Did you configure the Readyshare of the router after connecting the formated USB device?
