Reparse points are a way to trigger some specific processing when accessing a file. For instance a reparse point can be used to define a new patch to the file or directory, which ntfs-3g emulates as a symbolic link.
Windows 10 makes use of new reparse points for new kinds of features, which ntfs-3g processes through plugins. Currently two plugins are available : one for decompressing system files and one for extracting deduplicated files. According to the ntfsinfo, you need the former one, made available by Eric Biggers on https://github.com/ebiggers/ntfs-3g-system-compression Ready-to-use plugins are available on http://jp-andre.pagesperso-orange.fr/advanced-ntfs-3g.html#download To make use of these plugins, you need ntfs-3g 2016.2.22AR.1 or more recent. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728354 Title: ntfs: unsupported reparse point To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntfs-3g/+bug/1728354/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
