About Users
As the WD My Cloud device owner (admin), you have a special user account (admin) that
gives you administrative privileges. These privileges enable you to set up and configure the
device to your specific needs, as well as give other people access to your personal cloud.
You have the power to determine exactly what other users can access. As a default, the
admin user name does not have a password. You can add one at any time.
The Users icon displays a list of current users and enables the admin account to view
user details, create new users, create shares, and grant users access to existing shares.
Viewing Users
1. On the navigation bar, click Users to display the Set Up Users page. You’ll see a
