In reading the info, I believe that MinimServer is not currently looking in the correct place on the NAS for the files and that MinimWatch is used to change that (amongst other things). So I downloaded MinimWatch onto my Laptop. When I click on the MinimWatch icon all that happens is an Icon appears saying MinimServer(bobnas) is running.

Can you please advise how I can use MinimWatch, or other to get MinimServer to find the music files.

You can right-click on the minim icon to see a pop-up menu of commands. Select the Properties command and you will see a dialog that allows you to change the value of contentDir. After making the change, click OK to confirm, then select Restart from the minim icon's pop-up menu.

Thanks Simon. I have done that and everything is fine. The problem was it seemed to say select the "Setting" option which does not appear. Once I realised that you selected "Properties" did it straight away.

Still new to it all but as I can do Start,Stop,Reset and alter the settings by right clicking the minimServer Icon I really don't see at the moment what minimWatch achieves.

Got to check now why Twonky and minimServer show a different number of Albums/Tracks. That should pass a quiet evening.

Thanks again. Now I will make a donation.
