Roon won't recognize folders

Description Of Issue
Roon does not recognize or see any folders, used to recognize the NAS drive, but didn’t today. I removed the share, rebooted computer and nucleus.
Don’t know that I loaded the screen shot right but when I try to add network share I put the location in but nothing happens, it searches then a pink box shows up saying there was an unexpected error: Unexpected error. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @Charissa_Fotinos,

Can you try entering smb://DiskStation/music and then entering the Username and Password for the NAS and let us know if that helps?

We also have some information about troubleshooting this type of issue here:

I have the same problem month ago… Roon smb do not work with SMB V3, imho your nas use SMBV3.

Juste use smbv2 on your nas

This did not work. I connected to my NAS logging in under my Roon user name for the NAS which has a password without special characters. The disk station connected on my laptop. I then opened Roon typing the address above and the same user name and password I still get the same error.

Hi @Charissa_Fotinos,

Can you try connecting via IP address instead of using hostname for the NAS?
