Hello Pierre.
I am afraid I cannot run "blkid path-to-partition" command because I don't have 
a Linux OS, just Win10.
Yes, I am trying to read a USB stick formatted as NTFS. That is for sure.

I am just suspecting that library doesn't read Win10 ntfs drives due to this 
issue (from my post) and because I read this limitation in documentation. I am 
in the lack of ideas ...

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" ?

Several limitations were lifted or pushed back on Win10,
and AFAIK the latest ntfs-3g can access a partition updated
by Win10.
