Hello all.
I am using a linkstation mini on a home network. Computers are on Windows 7 with NASNavigator2. The mini is mapped on a drive letter.
I have 2 problems. One quite bad, the other just annoying. Can't resolve these.
1. Every time a computer restarts or goes to sleep, the connection is lost. I need to go to windows explorer and click on the mini's drive letter to reconnect it. Until I do this, all other apps (iTunes, Picasa, etc.) cannot access the mini or its data. I need to keep it permanently connected and automatically reconnected after sleep or restart. Please do you know of any way to do this?
2. A trashbox folder appears at the root of the mini, while a $RECYCLE.BIN folder appears at the root of every folder (pictures, videos, etc.) This is very annoying, these folders pollute menus from different apps. When I delete them they reappear, so ideally I would make them hidden. However it does not seem to work. Please could you indicate a way to achieve this?
Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Antoine from London.
