i recently had to reinstall freenas onto my machine, and i imported my volumes and they show up fine. i created a new share and i can see it from my windows 10 PC. I can transfer files from the share to my pc, but whenever i try to move something onto the nas it gives me the above error. Can anyone help me solve this? it never asked me for a password or anything to access the share from my pc, and I've attached screenshots of the error message and how my share is set up. and I'm using freeNAS corral 10.0.2

Hi,

I know I'm too late for this reply but this method worked for me. So, I'm just putting it out there so that other people too can refer to it. :)

Use Unlocker

You can also use Unlocker by Empty Loop. Once downloaded, run the program and while installing the program, choose Advanced option and make sure to uncheck third party softwares that comes bundled with Unlocker. When the installation completes, close the installer.

Right-click the folder you want to delete. You will see a new option called Unlocker. Click this option. It will open an Unlocker window. It will show you whether the file or folder is locked by a process. If it is, Unlocker will show you the list of all such processes. Choose Unlock All, or any other option as needed.

Unlocking will allow you to delete the file or folder easily.

This answer from Microsoft might be helpful too. You can always look at alternative ways to fix it if this one doesn't work for you.
