   Since you managed to contact the QNAP NAS, that suggests   
   Linux is currently configured to do both SMBV1 and the others.   
      
   In Windows   
      
      Start : Run : control                  # Run control.exe   
      
      "Programs and Features" control panel   
      
      Windows Features (side link)   
      
   There are three tick boxes for SMBV1, one being automatic   
   removal and should not be ticked. The other two boxes   
   should be ticked.   
      
   We should have Alan (Pinterest) write up a procedure for you.   
   He's been through this enough times, to help others.
