Open folder - the specified server cannot perform the requested operation

Hello,

since updating to Windows 11 24H2, I'm unable to browser a specific NAS.

The connection is established correctly, confirmed by "net use" and can also be mapped using "Map Network Drive" feature.

However when trying to browse and folder on the storage I get the error: "the specified server cannot perform the requested operation"

The storage is using SMBv2 and authentication.

I can access it from other machines without Win11 24H2 without any problem (Other Win11, Win10, Mac OSX)

Any help would be appreciated in solving or troubleshooting this

Thank you in advance
