Hey guys I have a strange question. Sorry if the answer is out there is just didn't know what to search. I have a user share that I never created that I can't remove. Its a smb share and it is called iMovie Projects.localized  I'm not sure how it got there and not sure how to make it go away. Any suggestions? Thanks.

It was created automatically by iMovie...you must have used iMovie to work on some files that were located on the server.  To remove it, enable disk shares if they aren't already enabled (on the unRAID Shares page), then go into each disk (disk1, disk2, etc.) and delete the folder named iMovie Projects.localized if it exists.  Once you have deleted the folder from every disk, the share should disappear.  If the share is still there, then go to the unRAID Shares page and manually delete the share from that page (just blank out the 'share name' text field and click the 'apply' button).

While you are deleting directories, you can also go to the flash and delete the config file for that share. I believe it's stored in config\shares or something like that. I believe it'll be called iMovie Projects.localized.cfg and if not it should be obvious because it will have the same name.

 

Once you do all the deletes then just stop and start the array and the share should go away.

 

I suspect you had iMovies linked directly to one of the disk shares and that's how it got created. If you link iMovies to a user share then it has no access to the top level of any disk and it can't create a rogue directory like that.

Thanks guys! That was odd. I'm not even sure what I would have worked on. Thanks again
