Folders copied from desktop to share do not appear

Post by angelo_lopes »

Hi

I copied two folders with music from the windows desktop to my NAS share and I didn't see them.
I did it a second time, and I still don't see the folders (you can see the *- Copy folders).
However the search finds them which makes the situation all the more awkward.

Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong, please?

try the admin user and see if the folder appears then

if so .. there might be a permission issue

You won't believe it. I created two folders on the desktop and copied the contents of each of two flash drives to each of them.
Then I copied these two folders to the NAS and I could never see them.

I've been mapping the music folder with user admin, and I still couldn't see them.

So I went to see the properties of the folders and they were hidden. Unbelievable. I created the folders by right-click and I haven't been messing around with attributes...

Thanks for the help tips.
