Hi Alan,
Had exactly the same issue, it is a Microsoft issue, an option was disabled in the Fall Creators update.
Guest Logons in your Lanman Workstation Settings was disabled, this should help.
Here is the work around:

Hello,
Please feel free to reach out Western Digitals technical team. The issue is completely not supported in this Microsoft forum. Just as BulldogXX said above, they might have to release a compatible program version for your current Windows build.
Should there be more, keep us posted.
Thanks - tried the WD website with no help. My network does not list the MY CLOUD device so that I can map it. However, I can access the MY CLOUD through its app. File transfer and management is complicated as a result.
Hi Rey,
I inadvertently Disconnected the network drive for my WD MY CLOUD cloud/storage device a few days ago. I attempted to Map The Network Drive back, but could no longer see the WD MY CLOUD in the Network using Files Explorer.
"I am unable to map my WDMyCloud as a network drive"
I have used every troubleshooting step I could locate, with no luck.
I could map my WDMyCloud drive last week and then Windows decided to force install their latest updates. Now I can't access the files on my WDMyCloud device in the File Explorer. I also can't uninstall the update.
It would be helpful if Windows didn't force updates on people. And, yes, I know that I can disable the updates in Services but the horse is already out of the barn.
