Re: Can't see NAS or even the computer in explorer, windows


[re: CHW_BA12] [link to this post]
 
In reply to a post by CHW_BA12:
I've got an old Synology NAS which Win 7 has been handling fine, but Win 10 can't see. There's some protocol disabled by default in Win 10.
I'm still unpicking this, you could check along this line of approach too.
Also, check your NAS OS is up-to-date too.


The proacal you are on about is SMB1, you need to go the old control panel, programs and features and turn on/off windows features and it is in there. Ms don't recommend it as it is a security problem, strange that it was available in Windows for all those years before. I had to do that on my old Buffalo, turned it off now as this NAS is new and don't require it.

The NAS OS is up to date as the NAS was brand-new yesterday. I looked at Synology, they have a good name in the NAS world, but I went for the 4 bay Terramaster instead.

Glad it's fixed, I saw it mentioned the other day on Kitz in this thread https://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php/topic,24787.msg41...

I've also had the odd occasion when my server doesn't show so have had to enter the \\name.

To see older devices in Windows 10 you may need to enable SMB1.0/CIFS Client in Windows Features | SMB1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support.
