NT File System (NTFS) (commonly called New Technology File System) is a proprietary journaling file system developed by Microsoft in the 1990s. [10] [11] [2]
NTFS-3G is an open-source cross-platform implementation of the Microsoft Windows NTFS file system with read/write support. NTFS-3G often uses the FUSE file system interface, so it can run unmodified on many different operating systems.
In NTFS, an entity in the filesystem fundamentally exists as: a record stored in the MFT of an NTFS volume, the MFT being the core database of the NTFS filesystem; and, any attributes and NTFS streams associated with said record. A link in NTFS is itself a record, stored in the MFT, which "points" to another MFT record: the target of the link
Older kernels may use backported NTFS3 driver or ntfs-3g [72] Read only, write support needs Paragon NTFS or ntfs-3g Needs 3rd-party drivers like Paragon NTFS for Win98 , DiskInternals NTFS Reader
A journaling file system is a file system that keeps track of changes not yet committed to the file system's main part by recording the goal of such changes in a data structure known as a "journal", which is usually a circular log.
Under Windows 2000, NTFS 3.0 partitions can be set to keep track of changes to files and directories on the volume, providing a record of when and what was done to the various objects. When enabled, the system records all changes made to the volume in the USN Journal, which is the name also used to describe the feature itself.
NTFS, a file system used by the Windows NT family, supports LFNs natively, but 8.3 names are still available for legacy applications. Windows NTVDM are known to use 8.3 names. This can optionally be disabled system-wide to improve performance in situations where large numbers of similarly named files exist in the same folder.
An NTFS reparse point is a type of NTFS file system object. It is available with the NTFS v3.0 found in Windows 2000 or later versions. Reparse points provide a way to extend the NTFS filesystem. A reparse point contains a reparse tag and data that are interpreted by a filesystem filter driver identified by the tag.
