The Linux NTFS filesystem driver

Overview

NTFS is a Linux kernel filesystem driver that provides full read and write support for NTFS volumes. It is designed for high performance, modern kernel infrastructure (iomap, folio), and stable long-term maintenance.

Utilities support

The NTFS utilities project, called ntfsprogs-plus, provides mkfs.ntfs, fsck.ntfs, and other related tools (e.g., ntfsinfo, ntfsclone, etc.) for creating, checking, and managing NTFS volumes. These utilities can be used for filesystem testing with xfstests as well as for recovering corrupted NTFS devices.

The project is available at:
