July 8, 2025Jul 8 I don't really recommend using a root share, I've seen multiple issues with that, but if you really want to, I recommend removing those entries and using the UD plugin option, it's still a hack, but less of one.

I tried enabling it but I seem to be missing most of the shares/pools. I also can't seem to rename the share to rootshare (so I don't have to change things too much with my current setup/links/shortcuts on windows). There aren't many settings so I'm at a loss as to why it's not working. My SMB extras config is blank at the moment so there shouldn't be any conflicts.
