    Hm? Just mount it with a specific umask.
    Only FAT, vFAT, exFAT support the uid, gid, umask option.

      UDF does too. I thought it was more widespread than that, hm.

          How about exFAT for usb mass storage? All the features of normal fs:es on external storage like this is one of the last concerns for normal users.
          Don't know about the fuse exFAT state however.
          This isn't NTFS from windows, but NTFS from linux. Linux NTFS drivers are crappy because various obvious reasons. NTFS from windows is pretty good.

          exFAT from linux uses the same FUSE infrastructure of NTF on linux, so it will have crap performance, and might be also as unreliable.

            NTFS driver results inconsistent => whole linux OS is not mature and good enough.

            Logic.

              Is there an in-kernel MS-friendly filesystem that runs with good performance I can use in a linux distro? I dual-boot at the moment and reserved a large storage partition for some games and scratch discing etc, and yeah, NTFS is rather slow when in linux. There's also the fun bit of having to restart in Windows if it went to sleep while in Windows otherwise the partition is marked unclean and drops to console for recovery. I believe that may well be caused by swap on that partition (hiber is actually turned off)

                Well, there is paragon ntfs driver for Linux, both paid and free versions, but I have never seen a single benchmark of it. Paragon makes high quality file system drivers for Linux/mac/windows, so I wonder why no one has ever tested it, considering that default ntfs-3g is crap.

                  Short answer: no.

                  Longer answer: probably FAT32, but can also happen that you write on a FAT32 drive from linux and then Windows wil NOT RECOGNIZE THE PARTITION ANYMORE, while on linux it is still perfectly fine and readable and fs checks don't find any error.

                  Possible Future Answer: maybe F2FS, it was planned to have a Windows version too.

                    FUSE -.- I want native file system, now I am using exfat with native kernel driver but it is not so fast like ext4 :/.

                      VFAT is only an extension on top of FAT.
