Defect or Enhancement Number:
Cause:
When sharing a file or folder publicly, it will change the name to random generic characters unless specified not to.
Resolution or Workaround:
One of two ways to resolve this
- One, delete the share and re-share the file or folder. When doing so, ensure the "share name" is a friendly name, and not random characters.
- Two, as an admin navigate too:
- Manage > User Share. Search for the share name or random characters. On the right side, click edit, and within that window, you will find the share name, which you can change.
