I undertook a system restore on my windows PC.
I can not now see the drive (Home Cloud Duo) in My Network, although it is visible in the router settings and I can log in via the online portal. I tried to install Discovery and it failed. I’ve tried quite a few things already:
- checked the SMB1.0 options in windows features (there is no SMB direct option as I’ve seen on some solutions)
- disabled my Norton security
- made sure my network/file sharing is on
- Followed completely the instruction on uninstalling and reinstalling the Discovery (including deleting all of the directories)
- Checked for any windows errors with the health checker.
- Checked firmware - on the latest version
- Followed instructions about creating a file registry entry
I’m at a bit of a loss what to try now. The latest WD stuff for Discovery says it works in Windows 11.
Oh, and a separate issue - I’ve got a very noisy fan on the WD device! Still under warranty so I’m probably going to get that repaired.
