    Can't open WD NAS drives after update KB4034674

    Windows 10 Home, v 1703, build 15063.540

    My NAS devices ( WD EX4100 and WD MyBook Live Duo 8TB ) both display as a device in Explorer, but can't be opened ( to view files / folders ) in File Explorer since the Aug 8 update. The WD NAS admin page is available via browser from the same PC, and streams
    media successfully. I can't map them with the \\devicename\share names, and existing shares with \\devicename\share can't be opened. Both drives are static IP, and their configurations have not changed in months.

    If I click either drive listed under the Network section, Explorer's status bar slowly fills for a minute and then displays:

    Error code 0x80070035

    The network path was not found

    If I try to map a drive, the device names are listed in the Map Network Drive dialog, but the Browse for Folder times out as above

    Can't see NAS drives in windows explorer


    I recently purchased a second WD network drive. Before I installed it I could always access the first NAS's files through windows explorer under the network folder. I don't know if there was a recent update to Win 10, but the day after I installed the second NAS drive I cannot access either drives through explorer.

    What is now under the network folder is my main PC, which wasn't under it before. I don't want to do a fresh install of Windows 10, but I do want to do a reconfigure of my whole network system. Any suggestions on where to begin and what to do? I don't really need to have all of my devices accessible, only the two NAS drives. Thanks.

    Windows 10 - NAS Drive

    I have recently purchased a 4 bay NAS drive. Whilst I can access the drive with the bundled software I can't see the drive as a network attached device in the Windows 10 file explorer. I have previously had a WD Mybook Live and an LG NAS running fine in
    Windows 7 & 8. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
