If your family is temperamental, does that mean half temper and half mental?

Dunno. But I would call our new office temp er... a mental kid.

I always thought one who was tempuramental had the mentality of a deep fried prawn.

It is well known that temperate is having eaten when angry, but does sentimental imply you are having someone committed?

Only for Halloween.
Consider that people who "run things" are the ones who define sanity to their own liking - and consider the state of the world. I'd be thoroughly ashamed to be considered sane.

It means 100% temper, 100% mental, and 200% schizophrenic.

I usually postpone large update as much as I can - nothing better than a slightly outdated but stable system.
Last time I updated, win10 did not get immediately in love again with my video card and that ended up in a horror story - three days debugging and force restarting to get things running properly again. Big loss of sweat, time and a few heartbeats.
So since I had a bit of time on my hands (which I could use to fix broken things after the update), I agreed about the update yesterday AND .... it went well. Win10 runs even smoother and is faster- which means really faster, because i could notice an improvement.
I still wait before declaring victory, but I enjoyed the free "fix" time that was not necessary

I believe no network drives mapped in your system. Lucky ...!

Mmmhh ! What do you mean ? I have my NAS mapped as a drive, and it was still available after the update.

Oh, it still works... I only had to re-create my user profile... MS only fd-up my mappings...
And I'm not in the position to choose network drives... And MS does not pay for new ones... And while I appreciate their concerns about security it is me (or my company in this case) who should decide what to do with those network drives I own... MS should give the means and not make the decisions...

Blame Samsung - they didn't update the drivers ... (or respond to my requests for tech support).

Makes me wonder: I have a win7 box and a DNS-323 NAS. It sort of sees it but won't - by which I mean it sees it enough to identify configuration info from the drive but just won't let me make a real connection.
The annoying part is it used to work on the very same system and was mapped as N: - now I can no longer map it.
So - as far as you know - had this NAS-disruption also crept from Win10 to Win7 ?

Try assigning the NAS a fixed IP, and map via that:
\\192.168.0.11\Publications\ Works for me, though I'd rather it worked via
\\SGNAS\Publications\ as it used to.

Thank - anything's worth a try.
It's so damn annoying - but something we've somehow grown to accept - that the computer-beings (demonspawn, surely!) are self-modifying at seemingly random intervals.*
The NAS contains some fairly important backup files. Fortunately, the most valuable, about 6000 35mm negatives I color corrected and digitized, had backups of the backups on USB HDD's. My Dr Who, collection, however, is still trapped.
* now something that worked and suddenly doesn't work - reminds me a bit of growing older but I won't bring that up.

Do you have Amazon Prime? If so, they give you free unlimited photo storage you can access from anywhere. An additional backup can never hurt!
* probably for the best.

No amazon prime here.
As for storage on the cloud - not for me. Control freak that I am, I don't want to surrender any data to a remote site under someone else's control. (Bad enough it's needed for banks and stuff, but 'remote storage' (of money) is the point of a bank). I think I might have a raw 21/2" HDD in a safe deposit box with the photos, as well.
My distaste for the cloud mode comes from live experiences - such as my wife's lesson plans were supposed to be uploaded to such a site (UK based) but there was no facility by which to download them. It was the school's policy that they must be uploaded. If I recall, they eventually dropped that provider and the data was, well, gone. By then, we has our own backups. Others weren't so fortunate.
Should I ever be in the state where I want my stuff available everywhere I'll get a static IP for one of my domains and make my own little server. Something that may be done, anyway, to allow family to transfer pictures easily. If FireFox Send is reactivated, this latter option is less essential.

I can understand your reluctance to use the Cloud - I don't trust it either - but as an additional backup for pictures it's not a bad idea. Your own file server is a better solution, but not available for most people!

Well, for the mere mortals, I suggest they backup their image files using a pencil and paper.
It keeps them busy for a long time, or at least they rarely bother me again.

One of my file servers on my home network can happily be mapped via name "\\FS01\..." but the other one, "\\FS00\...", doesn't seem to be recognised that way and I was going to use direct IP address mapping but instead I have a HOSTS file that I already use and copy to all my machines (for various good reasons I won't go into right now) so I just added the mapping to that - problem solved (or at least worked around)!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
