Suspect installing Drive in Win 10 has corrupted NTFS shared partiion to Ubuntu access. Read on.
I've two OS's running alternately on same machine. I boot one or the other at a time. They only share data on an NTFS partition of SSD drive. There's only that one drive in the machine.
I'll name them X & W.
X is Ubuntu 18.04, 64 bit with drive sync'd folders on NTFS partition of Samsung SSD drive.
W is Windows 10 1909, 64 bit syncing to SAME folders as X on NTFS partition.
Using Drive client 2.0.1-11061 on both.
Drive seems fine on W machine.
Drive reports "missing local folder or insufficient privileges" in red text under sync'd folders in Drive Applet.
X can't access the problem folders on the shared NTFS partition anymore in its file manager. Used to work just fine.
WAS WORKING FINE on X before I installed Drive client on W machine.
Important:
There are folders on the shared NTFS partition, both OS can still access, use and sync. Only some of the folders have become a problem on X.
I suspect the Windows OS did something to permissions to break Ubuntu access to SOME of the mounted folders.
Windows fast startup and hibernate are both turned off. I have booted from power off and no change to problem.
Any one encountered and solved this? thoughts?
Thanks much!
