Hi Barry,

Have you installed the ntfs-3g package? It should be in EPEL for EL7.

In Dolphin, I tried to open one of the many NTFS partitions on this box  =
-
and hit this msg (see below).

NB: Box is Core i5, 8GiB Ram.

Tried again (and again) .. same msg.
Rebooted ... same again.

Tried other NTFS partitions - same again ..

NB: fat32 partition opened ok.

Any ideas pls?

Cheers
Barry
