I did that but I now have many of the following errors when I backup my files with rsync from local hard drive d: (ntfs) to usb hard drive g: (ntfs, mounted with noacl in /mnt/g): $ rsync --modify-window=1 --recursive --links --executability --times --quiet --delete /cygdrive/d/Documents /mnt/g/Sauvegarde/ rsync: rename "/mnt/g/Sauvegarde/Documents/Fred/Bal/1.7/Bal/gcc-release/bin/.configure.exe.JVPk8f" -> "Documents/Fred/Bal/1.7/Bal/gcc-release/bin/configure.exe": Device or resource busy (16) when rsync ends, .configure.exe.?????? still exists and configure.exe does not exist or both do not exist Each time I try to use ntfs on USB drives, it turns to a nightmare... maybe I will switch again to fat32.
