Hello,

I'd like to know what happens if I disable the "enable Home Directory" in CIFS options.
Will the specified directory be deleted or will this option just disable the share and nothing will happen to my data?

Thank you

Yes, I did :smile:

Nothing will happen to your files. Disabling this option will just disable the virtual smb share.

There's one funny thing though:
Creating a common smb share named 'Homes' will show smb home shares, regardless of the 'enable Home Directory' setting.

You should post this bug so we can get it fixed for future versions.
