Trying to remove a (old - I changed drive-labels, and so the share-names were also changed) shared folder. At the end I only get the option 'annuleren'.

In Shared Folders Management I still see all my old share-names (the last 5, ic. Volume_1 to W7_8). These are actually not working anymore. It is impossible to remove those - the button 'accept' is missing.
On the other hand I cannot see the newer, working (!), share names, which I installed later in time.
The first 5 shares are actually present and working. When I try to remove one of these (e.g. 'Maxtor_1'), I do get the option 'accept'.
Overall this menu the capacity-items are not updated- keeps saying 'wait'.

Hi JDZ,
I am not at home to make test and I don't remember if the usb shares can be removed from this menu.
Usually, this share are removed if you use the usb disks menu (safe remove feature). You got orphan shares if you doesn't use this feature!
Note : the easiest way to remove these orphan shares is to reboot the NAS :whistle

I looked at the delete function : you can remove an usb share from this menu (Note : the data are not deleted in this case).
But What I don't understand, it is why the delete menu didn't get the sharename ? (and so there is no accept button).
Do you use several pages or browsers to update your USB disks?
Could you post a screen capture of the edit share menu before clicking on the delete button?
Note : when the current system stays with the message "Wait..." a fatal error has occured. You must refresh the menu before submitting another order.
(for example ask to delete a share which exists no longer in the NAS database. this case can happen if you use several pages in the same time...).

Without doing anything... the problem disappeared. ;)
