This today is used by most windows installs
It is the most widely used file system on windows these days. It does exist in different versions, but unlike FAT32, all of them offer the following points:
* Large files> 4GB
* Long file names with UTF16 up to 255 characters
* Rights management, ACL
* Journaling of metadata
* Compression, encryption, ...
 
Currently there are some restrictions when using NTFS with Linux. If windows is suddenly switched off or goes into hibernating, the NTFS file system is left in a "dirty-state". When Windows starts again, NTFS is the first to be cleaned. This operation is currently not supported by the Linux driver. Then Linux shows the NTFS file system as read-only to be on the safe side.
 
If you regularly switch between Windows and Linux, you should switch off "hibernation" / "Hybrid boot" / "Fast Boot" in Windows. Then Linux has allways full (read / write) access to NTFS drives.
