This happened to me yesterday. I put in an HDMI and found the machine was sitting at a bootloader menu. I attached a USB keyboard and hit ESC for normal boot. Nothing happened. I restarted it and it then booted normally.
Have also noticed a decrease in the stability of ROCK since the 155 update.
There are many moments where ‘Lost Connection, Trying to Reconnect’ is seen on the Roon Remotes.
The ROCK is still present on the network, and the Core is running, but there are seems to be some networking presentation issues.
Can we go back to Build 150 please.
Also, what was covered in the 155 update, as there was no Release Notes with it.
Hmm - not seeing that here. Everything’s Rock-solid… However, my Remotes are all Windows devices - no iOS, Android or OSX stuff allowed in my home, thank you…
Hi @Peter_Leinslie ----- Thank you for your continued feedback and more importantly, thank you for your patience here.
Before continuing forward, I want to make sure I have this behavior clear in my head. From my understanding of your report, and please due correct me if I am wrong, you are running ROCK on a NUC that can be pinged from your Windows PC computer (Roon remote) but you are not seeing ROCK listed as a network share on the same computer, yes? Furthermore, you have no issues controlling ROCK via the PC, its just that the ROCK can’t be accessed via the PC on the OS level, yes?
During your troubleshooting have you tried re-mounting ROCK via “Network and Sharing Center”?
We’re looking into this, and we have an understanding of the underlying issue. We recently enabled SMB2 on ROCK, but I think Windows may be blocking “guest” access (as described here). This is probably something we will need to fix, so I don’t think this is related to your setup.
For now, try this workaround: Go to Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off > confirm the the box for “SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support” is checked.
Hey @Peter_Leinslie, with Fall Creators Update MSFT introduced a lot of changes to network. One of those change was disabling Guest access on Win 10 Enterprise and Education. Since you use Enterprise and ROCK uses Guest access by default this might be your issue. You need to manually enable Guest access on your Win machine:
Press Win + Q
Type edit group policy and hit Enter
Go to Computer configuration\administrative templates\network\Lanman Workstation
