Have to turn SMB shares to public to avoid the intermittent permission issues
No problem, I appreciate the responses! Before we go any further I wanted to link this comment here https://forums.unraid.net/bug-reports/stable-releases/windows-10-the-action-cannot-be-completed-because-the-folder-or-file-is-open-in-another-program-r2164/?do=findComment&comment=21368 from my bug report shared earlier in the thread. "dlandon" gave me some changes/commands that has seemed to solve the issue. This does make me wonder why the default smb settings we're not the ones he provided, because it seemed to quickly knock out the bug. However, 1) Yes I am using the credential manager 2) I'm pretty comfortable using it, I don't know every command, but I'm pretty adept when it comes to picking something up like that (I program in python) 3) No I'm not using Active Directory. Is this something that users should consider using?

Have to turn SMB shares to public to avoid the intermittent permission issues
I appreciate the response. I have read those threads/posts probably 20 times at this point. I've watched spacevanders videos on the subject, I've set it up, re-set it up. I'm not logged in as a guest user This is the same user that logs in from all of my machines This here is the bug report I put in on the matter

Have to turn SMB shares to public to avoid the intermittent permission issues
I've been using UnRaid coming from a Windows server for about 20 days now. Recently just purchased the Pro key, but I've had issues with SMB shares the entire time. At first I thought it was me, but I'm realizing this is a major issue when it comes to UnRaid. The only solution I've found is to turn the share to Public. The errors I get randomly is when I'm trying to rename/move/delete files that are on the share from one of my windows machines or windows VM. Well, I have programs/scripts that run constantly working with the files, just like I would have on my Windows server. However, randomly I get "you don't have permission" or "can't delete/move/etc a file while it's in use" when I check the permissions, they are there and when the file "can't be moved because it's in use" I can go to another machine/use UnRaid file browsing gui/cli and move the file anyways. This was all trying to use the SMB security at secure and private. I've tried numerous threads, settings, changes, users, users on multiple machines. It boils down to UnRaid/Samba. So for now I'm going to just set these shares to public, but it feels like it kinda defeats the entire purpose of a file server. I'm to the point where I'd might have just went back to my Windows server if I hadn't spent the money on this license. Has anyone found any solutions or work around to these issues? Looking at the forums I mostly see dead ends, or suggestions to try that ultimately doesn't solve the issue.

Unraid 6.11.1 - virtiofs with Windows 10 VM
I could not get two shares working
-
Unraid OS version 6.11.1 available
I played around with the new VirtioFs feature. However, it seems that no matter what I can only get 1 drive mapped. I'll disable for now I suppose

WINDOWS 10: The Action Cannot Be Completed Because The Folder Or File Is Open In Another Program
I have random errors when it comes to Windows 10 and SMB security shares. I encode/move a lot of media around, I use windows 10 VM from UnRaid as well as my actual Windows 11 gaming machine to manipulate the files. Randomly I'll get the error from windows the action cannot be completed because the folder or file is open in another program while trying to move/rename a folder/file that is in a secure share. This error pops up on both PC's so this is definitely not just a windows thing. This has to do with the share/smb security. Temporarily I can go into the share and change the security from Secure/Private to Public. As soon as I change the security the file can immediately be moved/renamed on either the VM/Physical Window machine. Additionally when this happens, I can use CLI/Krusader to rename/move the folder/file always regardless of share security. As far as I know my permissions are correct, the permissions for the folders/files definitely show correctly when I check them. Changing them to nobody/back makes no difference. The only thing that unlocks the file/folder is changing the share to Public OR rebooting both windows machines (this isn't really a good option as I have jobs running that sometimes takes days). I was wondering if there was a known fix for this, a work around, or if someone can give me some insight on if I'm doing something wrong. Thanks! If I use the command "samba restart" it'll instantly solve the issue. Additionally I can rename the folder from within UnRaid terminal or Krusador and it has no errors. This is a random error, I can manipulate many files and move folders, but when it happens it happens. Only solution to fix it is to restart samba or reboot the machine. jlw-unraid-diagnostics-20221020-2327.zip

Windows 10: the action cannot be completed because the folder or file is open in another program
Seems the issue might have to do with the fact that I'm logged into the share on two machines. Then one of the windows machines is doing something with the file/folder when the other one edits it. As soon as I turned off the virtual machine it seems that the problem has went away for now at least.

EDIT: You can replicate this by simply using command prompt "rename" function from within your windows machine. After just try to move/delete said file and you'll get the above error.
