Windows 10: GoFlex Home NAS Drive disappears with Win 10 1803 Update

Why, when I updated to Win 10 1803 did my GoFlex Home NAS disappear? I can still use it as a media server, but I cannot use it as a network drive on my laptop. I had to downgrade the update to regain access to the drive. Is there a fix or workaround for this? I assume it has to do with Microsoft removing Homegroup. How can I regain access to this device? Every other thread I've looked at with a similar question has been locked with no answer posted.

Can't access NAS drive after Windows 10 build 1803 installed

Hello,

After the 1803 Update that turned off SMBv1, I can no longer access the NAS drive on one system. Other computers (Windows 10) and devices (phones and tablets) can access the NAS drive.

I have done the following:

Network Profile is set to Private.

I altered these services to Automatic (Delayed Start)

- Function Discovery Provider Host

- Function Discovery Resourse Publication

- SSDP Discovery

- UPnP Device Host

Now, when I click on Network in Explorer, I can actually see my computer and the shared folders, but still can't see the NAS drive. Every oher Win 10 computer can see it. Including, a Win 10 VM I set up on the computer that CAN'T see the NAS drive. So, there
is something set on this computer that is preventing it from seeing this drive. I would rather get some suggestions of what might need to be changed, than Resetting the OS and start over. I have done a Network Reset for both the Ethernet adapter and the WiFi
adapter. No such luck.

Thank you,

Mike
