Recent updates of ZorinOS12 make Google Chrome Blinded to NFS shared folders, pls. help!

Dear all,

* Assumes
# Client PC: ZorinOS12.1 ( Zorin-OS-12.1-Core-64.iso ), AsRock J3160 mini-ITX, 8GB Ram, 120GB-SSD
# NAS Server: Synology Diskstation DS716+II, with DSM 6.1.3-15152 Update 1


I successfully auto-mounted shared folders of Synology NAS server to my Client PC running ZorinOS12.1 thru "NFS" according to this URL sometimes ago:
https://www.ryananddebi.com/2013/01/15/ ... ogy-shares

but recent updates of ZorinOS12 make Google Chrome no longer able to see these shared folders, I have to save downloaded files into local folder first, e.g. "/home/user1/download", and then copy them to the shared folder.

so are there anyway to checkout what updates of ZorinOS12 that making Chrome blinded to the shared folders of Synology NAS server?

OR
how to adjust the parameters of NFS to make Chrome and Firefox be able to see the shared folders?
==================================
192.168.2.100:/volume1/photos /home/user/NASphotos nfs rw,hard,intr,nolock 0 0

Thanks for any kinds of help!
