I did a clean install, replacing Ubuntu 20.04 with 22.04. Since then the web browsers (both Chrome & Firefox) cannot save any downloaded files to my network drive (a QNAP NAS). The browsers can "see" the NAS and even let me pick the save destination. But the files just refuse to be downloaded and saved on the NAS. Saving the files to local disk is OK. Anyone having the same problem? Help needed.

I'm having a similar issue. Just upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04. I cannot attach files (in Gmail) from a remote network share (mounted by gvfs over ssh). I can browse and select the File from the "Open Files" dialog, but it doesn't attach. I don't get an error message, either. It just doesn't attach the file. On the other hand, if I manually mount the share (using FUSE) in my home directory, it works.

I tried to install the gnome package above and it already stated that I had the latest version.

You can still access the mount, however, you need to know where the mount point is on your local machine. You can see an example of how to do this in a response on this bug report.

TL;DR; You should be able to access it via Other Locations -> Computer -> run/user/user_id/gvfs as stated in the link above. HTH
