Nov 08, 2017 Windows 10 (like 8.0, 8.1, and Server 2012 and 2012R2) defaults to SMB 3.0. Server Message Block is the higher-level protocol that Microsoft uses for file sharing. Windows 7 and Server 2008 used SMB 2.1. Windows Vista used 2.0 and Windows NT and XP used 1.0. On the QNAP, the Microsoft networking service is enabled (as a standalone server) and it has the latest firmware update. I have another Windows 10 PC in the network (still on an Insider preview), which does have access to the same shares. When Windows 10 was released, it seemingly broke the ability to easily connect to Linux Samba shares. Considering how many businesses rely on Samba for the sharing of folders, this was a bad move.

I just installed Windows 10 and I can't connect to any of the shared drives on my QNAP station.
My network is a private network and I have enabled file and printer sharing, network discovery and file sharing for devices that use 40 or 56-bit encryption.
On the QNAP, the Microsoft networking service is enabled (as a standalone server) and it has the latest firmware update.

I am using a Seagate BA-NAS and had an issue similar to this.
I couldn't access it using the path in explorer but it can find it if you map it as a network drive.
Just make sure you enter the username including the hostname/ip
e.g. 10.10.10.100username
Once it was mapped I could access the shares with the path like normal.

Server Message Block (SMB) is a networking file share protocol included in Windows 10 that provides the ability to read and write files and perform other service requests to network devices. Usually, you'll be using SMB to connect to devices that don't run Windows, such as a router with file sharing capabilities, Network-Attached Storage (NAS), or other computers running Linux.
Although there have been three major releases of the protocol, there is a chance that you may still have devices running the original version, such as SMB version 1 (v1) which is old and insecure, and Windows 10 no longer installs it by default starting with the Fall Creators Update and April 2018 Update. As a result, you'll get error messages like 'You can't connect to the file share because it's not secure;' 'The specified network name is no longer available;' and 'Unspecified error 0x80004005' when trying to access your files.
However, if you have a networking device that you can no longer access because of this issue, you can still temporarily enable the protocol to retrieve files.

In this Windows 10 guide, we walk you through the steps to temporarily enable the SMB protocol to regain access to files stored in the network. Then, we'll also explain the process to disable it to keep your computer protected.
How to temporarily re-enable the SMBv1 protocol on Windows 10Setup Smb Share Windows 10
If you don't have direct access to the device running the SMB service, you can temporarily enable the SMBv1 protocol for the purpose of retrieving your files using these steps:
After completing these steps, you'll once again be able to see and connect to network devices running the old protocol on your local network from your Windows 10 computer.
Of course, you should only use these steps as a temporary solution to regain access to your files stored on the network. Ideally, if you're saving your data on a drive connected to a router with file sharing capabilities or NAS, you should contact the device manufacturer for specific instructions to update the device to a version that supports SMBv2.02 or later.
If the manufacturer can't provide an update, you should consider getting a network device that includes support for the more secure version of the network protocol.
After you've either migrated your data off the network or you updated the software that supports the more secure version of the protocol, we recommend disabling SMBv1 on your computer. You can easily do this following the same steps mentioned above, but on Step No. 5, make sure to clear the SMB 1.0/CIFS Client option.
