mounted exFAT file container not responsive

[todo]

background info:

• 8GB exFAT file container is stored on Synology NAS
• mounting the file container will work for awhile, then become non-responsive after some period of no operations to/from the volume
• Windows 11 Home, on LAN network
• Veracrypt 1.25.9 (64bit)

I cannot figured out how long of 'no operations' will cause the volume to be non-responsive. After it becomes non-responsive, I'll get the error "0x8007003B: an unexpected network error occurred" when accessing any files. However, I can still scroll through the directories, but I just cannot open any files for read/write.

1. Is this problem caused by Synology's Samba driver?
2. Or is it an exFAT filesystem problem?
3. Or will switching to NTFS fix this?
4. Or is it a Veracrypt's mounting issue?

Thanks!

This certainly looks like something outside of VC, else you'd get a different error.

1. How do you mount that share with the file?
2. Isn't there any NAS/disks hibernation happening, by any chance?
3. Are you able to access other files on the same share, outside of the VC container, when that happens?
