QNAP login problem on Windows 10

Turns out it was a bitdefender issue. I had to add the local QNAP address as an exception and then everything was ok.

Fixed Bluetooth interference between Logitech MX Master 2S and Sony BT speaker

Turned on and connected the speaker first, then connected the mouse. I'm guess the mouse is much smarter about choosing an alternate frequency channel that avoids what the speaker was already using. I doubt the speaker has that kind of smarts built in.

Error 0x80070032 when trying to copy files

Suddenly when trying to copy files from my Win10 computer to a QNAP NAS device I was getting error 0x80070032. 

I tried everything I could think of and then had a 45min chat session with QNAP tech support. 1000 points to QNAP they solved the problem. Apparently a particular update along the way changed an important Samba setting. The fix was to SSH into the NAS device and the run the following two commands:
/sbin/setcfg Samba ADS NO
/etc/init.d/smb.sh restart

(the tech used PuTTY to SSH in)

Basically this allowed the transfer of a file without properties. I'm guessing the files that weren't copying (only some of them) had extra sidecar information that was causing Samba to reject the file (old XMP files or Mac files?).
