*FIX INCLUDED* Java Update + Google Chrome Renders Remote Access Inaccessible

My OS: Windows 7

Browser: Chrome Version 42.0.2311.90

Updated to latest version Java Version 8 Update 45. Remote access to My Cloud broke. Evidently, after actually reading the notice on the Java verification site, “Chrome has disabled the standard way in which browsers support plugins”. After doing a bit on quick research, turns out that NPAPI (what My Cloud uses?) is deprecated & Google Chrome is phasing out support. I hope WD comes up with a solution. Perhaps WD developers should read the blog post that Java recommends:  https://blogs.oracle.com/java-platform-group/entry/java_web_start_in_or

HERE’S THE FIX:

Visit  chrome://flags/#enable-npapi & Enable NPAPI
