Hello. I have loaded NTFS-3G from here:
https://github.com/vitalif/ntfs-3g into a VS2017 project, wanting to
read NTFS USB stick drive. And when I debugging reading process, I saw
that is not reading USB drive due to:
*// bootsect.c*
BOOL ntfs_boot_sector_is_ntfs(NTFS_BOOT_SECTOR* b)
{
u32 i;
BOOL ret = FALSE;
ntfs_log_debug("Beginning bootsector check.\n");
ntfs_log_debug("Checking OEMid, NTFS signature.\n");
if (b->oem_id != const_cpu_to_le64(0x202020205346544eULL))// "NTFS "
{
ntfs_log_error("NTFS signature is missing.\n"); // *<-- my code
is running from here ...*
goto not_ntfs;
}
...
...
I run it this code on *Win10 64bit/VS2017*. And my USB stick are valid,
I have tried several USB stick (all of them NTFS).
I read that *vitalif/ntfs-3g* has a OS limitation: Windows XP, ... and
Windows 7 file systems ... that is why I suspect the cause of my failing
reading process ...
The mentionned check is valid, if it fails then you are
not reading an ntfs partition. Maybe you are reading the
full device instead of a partition, or reading a partition
formatted as fat or exfat.
What is the output of "blkid path-to-partition" ?
I have seek it on github for another *NTFS-3G* /project that support
Win10/, I didn't found it ... is there anywhere another version of
*NTFS-3G library that work on Win10* ? Or, could another cause for my
failing ?
Several limitations were lifted or pushed back on Win10,
and AFAIK the latest ntfs-3g can access a partition updated
by Win10.

Any support will be wellcome, I am struggle for this issue for days and
days ...
Regards,
Flaviu.
