Windows 10: Windows 11 22H2 using PC login connect to NAS

I notice weird issue after upgrading to 22H2. Windows 11 22H2 is hammering my QNAP NAS using PC login info rather than the already stored in Windows Login Credentials. Causing my QNAP to auto ban my PC for 5min incorrect login. The only solution to create exact username/password on my qnap which is not ideal and security risk having using the same username/password for any device. Also, why it trying to logging to my nas when I don't have any folder map to the NAS or even try to access it.

NAS connected to local network not showing up on some PC's

Like so many, I have multiple PC's on my home network plus NAS, printers etc. Regardless of wired or wireless connection, everything works fine and all networked devices including NAS is visible as it should - except one! This particular PC, shows all
network devices, except the NAS. From an OS perspective this PC is identical to all other PC's on network and runs latest version of Windows 10 Home. I have tried different methods that some folks suggested, including login in as an admin, on the internet
but no joy. All other PC's on network, has no issues in reading or writing to NAS.

Can someone help to fix it?

 

Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000040) - Windows 11 22H2

In 22H2, the default RPC connection method has changed. Setting “Configure RPC Connection settings” GPO to “RPC over named pipes” might fix the issue.
