Was it a file requester with a "recent files" section in it? I can't say I've noticed the issue you mention, unless the files and directories within the file requester had something to do with the NAS. If they were within some sub-directory, out of the current directory, that kind of thing (waiting for the NAS to wake up) didn't happen. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.13.16-202.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Nov 30 15:39:32 UTC 2017 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
