Having issues logging into unraid from windows machine, Certain folders work great and others dont, I can try to change permissions via newperms command which works, but different folders or later on it appears permissions may get changed back. 

 

I did setup rootshare, I did follow SMB video by spaceinvaderone.

Any help would be great. Not sure why i have 2 different users, scuba is new user and powerhorse is old but worked on old system.

The folder giving me issues with ths windows 102 folder, win10dupe works fine.

 

The key question is how are those folders being created (Windows 102 & logs)

They got created long time ago so not sure, I think the VMbackup plugin

Following, as I have the same issue. newperms fixes the issue temporarily. However, some folders loose their permissions over time. I mostly see this in my steam library. Steam is able to find a game but doesn't have permission to update it. I run newperms on the game folder and then steam can update that game. Later, steam tries to update the same game and no longer has permission.

 

Also, my files/folders were copied from a windows machine. Please tell me there is a fix for this (other than deleting and starting over on the unraid server).
