Permessi scrittura hard disk esterno NTFS [Translation: NTFS external hard disk write permissions]

[GeeseHoward]

Ciao a tutti. Scusate se scrivo in italiano ma vado di fretta..
Non riesco a copiare file su un hard disk esterno formattato in NTFS. Lo uso per guardare video. Ho il sospetto che il problema della scrittura sia sorto dopo averlo collegato ad una console Xbox Serie X. Comunque ho provato a cambiare i permessi dalla finestra "Proprieta'" ma in realta' non cambiano. Ho provato anche ad eseguire ntfsfix ma il problema rimane. Posseggo un altro hard disk esterno formattato in NTFS e con esso non ci sono problemi. Qualche suggerimento?

This can happen if the XBox left the drive in what Windows would consider a "dirty" state.
Generally, the resolution is to connect that drive to a Windows OS computer, then run chkdisk on it to correct the errors.

I believe there is a GnuLinux solution in terminal, but look it up.

Thanks, tomorrow I will try

Please keep in mind, Linux will not allow you to change all drive permissions, unless you open Nautilus with SUDO privileges, I covered this in my tutorial here...

[How To] Setup External Drives With Steam Flatpak

With Windows, all you have to do is plug in your formatted external drive, go in Steam, and tell it to use the external drive for your games library. But on Linux, its a lot harder. First and formost, when you buy a hard drive, it never comes preformatted for Linux. The first thing your going to want to do after plugging in your new external drive, is go into your DISKS utility, and format the DISK to use GPT. Once done, create a EXT4 partition using available space. Once done, click on the > s…

Hopefully this helps!

I don't like that, Microsoft just can't help themselves to corrupt storage drives. As you know, I've been made aware of what they have done to SSD drives, after the Windows 11 update.

It is NTFS, so, GnuLinux drive permissions are not relevant to it - There can be some Linux workarounds if there is Zero access to a Windows PC.

But using Windows to correct NTFS is by far, the preferred method.

I'm not entirely sure about that, but it could be that the Connection to the XBox makes it usable on it but affect the Usage as a normal external Drive.

Thank you everyone. I solved with the solution given by Startreker and it is better than searching for a Windows system (I no more use it).
