Sorry for the question, which I think is obvious to many of you, but I can't really solve it ...
I need to run FFS on a Western Digital Mycloud nas, and I can't find the app to install manually on the nas: you know how I have to do? What file should I look for?

Thanks in advance

You can not run FFS on a Western Digital Mycloud nas.
You must run FFS on a Windows, Mac or Linux machine.

Thanks for the reply...
But does that mean I can't use FFS on the nas? It was the same Western Digital page that indicated FFS as one of the programs that can be used to synchronize the PC with the nas ...

FFS can access any location that your PC can access.

FFS only needs to run on a single (Windows, Mac or Linux) machine. And (locations on) that machine do not even need to part of the sync.
As xCSxXenon essentially already stated, the only prerequisite is that the machine running FFS must have local or network access to the locations involved in the sync.
