Can anyone tell me the correct windows 10/Chrome address format for my ds218j nas eg \\192.168.1.188:5000?\volume 1?\sharedfoldername\subfoldername so that I can map my files to appropriate NAS folders.
I've tried all sorts for several days without success.

Thankyou, Colin

Thanks for your reply Shadow
Yes, I'm confused. Hence my request for help.
Your http://192.168.1.188:5000 correctly produces (attached). Now all I need is the exact address to use in Explorer when mapping the Data folder. Hopefully that explains my problem better?
Many thanks, Colin

Already stated in the previous response
To access the shares on your NAS via SMB with Windows explorer (ex): \\192.168.1.188\<sharename>
 
Thanks Rusty
SUCCESS. Mapping to \\192.168.1.188\Data works! I had unnecessarily complicated the issue, having watched Synology's "How to" videos, by trying to include an obligatory 'Volume1' in the address.
