What System

WD My Book Live

What We Found

Can’t delete the files due to the path/file name is longer

You can access the device via SSH and delete the file from there.

To do this, by default, the SSH option is turned off. To turn on SSH, go to http://{IP-ADDRESS-OF-NAS}/UI/ssh

Login via WinSCP to the device with the right IP and the following username and password:

Username: root

Password: welc0me

Go to the folder of /DataVolume/shares/

Find the folder name and file accordingly and delete it from there.
