Thereare numerous threads on the topic. None of it works long term. Sure, I routinely get the stupid NAS to show up. . . .but rarely on the first try. BTW: I have this issue with four different WD Linux based products.

Tried a few more things, no good. We spoke about SMB and he said that wasnt SMB. (I have checked the windows credential I added last night, but they have either disappeared or were removed as there is no indication that I can see of the 2x windows credentials I created or any new ones).


So, what worked in my case: Go to EX2 ultra via browser interface > Settings > Network > Windows Services > SMB protocol > Set this to [SMB 1, 2 and 3]. This applies immediately, and I can see my device and files in Network>Computer, after giving credentials (one-time).


I too spent hours and hours trying to access my EX2 Ultra from Windows 10 (which used to work), tried all the suggestions. I eventually found that I had set incorrect DNS server IP addresses (well, they were valid, but then I moved the drive to a new location and ISP, where those DNS server IP addresses were not valid).


This is what did it for me. Recently acquired a Windows 10 Enterprise machine from a local Goodwill which I know differs from home and pro versions of windows 10. Manually adding in the credentials allowed me to access the main share of the mycloudex2ultra.


Thank You very much, this helped me. I had to add a new credential for my cloud ex2 ultra this was missing in windows user account. Now can I see all my files that i have saved in MyCloud Ex2 Ultra in Windows file explorer.


The only computer I have is an HP 17z laptop, windows 10. For my antivirus I use Windows Defender. I am completing my free trial of Malwarebytes and I would like to get the premium, but I have a question. Malwarebytes is able to covrer 3 devices. I have no cell phone presently, but I do have a 1 year old 4K ultra tv. The cable company is Frontier Vantage. Can I use Malwarebytes somehow to protect my TV?


Just FYI, there are actually some threats that attack IoT (Internet of Things) devices like smart TVs and other household electronics which connect to the web, so having some kind of protection for them wouldn't hurt. Generally such protection is provided through the router used for connecting your devices to the internet. Some routers have some kind of anti-malware capabilities built in, but at minimum should at least provide firewall capabilities which will at least help to some degree to keep hackers out of your devices. As IoT devices become more common in households, the bad guys will begin to target them with greater frequency and this is a gap in the protection offered by most security tools and products, including Malwarebytes at the moment. I also believe that eventually these devices will either start to include security capabilities and software or that router and modem manufacturers will start providing security solutions to protect these types of devices better.


That said, there are things you can do to help secure your devices without using any third party software including only using it for the services specifically included with the device/offered by your device's provider (for example, if it comes with Netflix and/or Amazon video streaming capabilities built in) and not doing normal web browsing on the device so that you avoid most of the risk with regards to possible exploits etc. which might be targeting the device/its browser. While it is possible that Amazon, Netflix and other streaming service providers could get hacked and have exploits embedded in their sites, it is far less likely than with other sites which display advertisements from third parties (such as Google AdSense and Microsoft adCenter among others). Instead, perform these tasks on your better secured devices such as your laptop or smartphone (assuming you have Malwarebytes installed on your smartphone of course) so that you are better shielded against the possible presence of malicious exploits in third party advertisements (known as malvertisements).
