I am a Linux newbie. How do I do what you asked? The question is moot for me. While waiting for more than a month for a response to my bug report, I have already found a workaround. I reformatted the drive from NTFS to ext4. This solved the problem for me but I lost the capability of a Windows machine reading my data. Given that Windows 10 installer will not re-install windows on a large drive this is not an issue with me. I have written off Windows as a bad deal with no support.
However others may want to keep compatibility with Windows. In that case the bug in the NTFS driver needs to be fixed.
