Updated to WIn 11 24H recently and now I can not access my WD MyCloud NAS on the network. The NAS shows in File Explorer but when I try to access the drive it can't find the path. Can access the NAS software using the IP address. I never had trouble until the 24H update. Do I need the change the security policies? I need access to these files to work. How do I fix this?

    Hello,

    If your system is Windows 11 24H2 version, I suspect that the problem is caused by SMB signing. I recommend that you open PowerShell as an administrator and run the following command to disable SMB signing and restart your computer to see if the issue can be resolved:

    Set-SmbClientConfiguration -RequireSecuritySignature $false

    Set-SmbServerConfiguration -RequireSecuritySignature $false

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. I recommend that you enable insecure guest logons with Local Group Policy Editor

    1. Go to Start.
    2. Go to Search, enter the word gpedit.msc, and then press Enter.
    3. Go to Computer Configuration > Administrative templates > Network > Lanman Workstation.
    4. From the right-side pane, double-click Enable insecure guest logons.
    5. Select Enabled, and then press Enter. Screenshot shows the steps to enable insecure guest logons with Local Group Policy Editor.

    Best Regards
