Stable Version 2009.2.1 (February 12, 2009)

Changelog:

  • New: The ‘recover’ and ‘norecover’ mount options were introduced. The former option will cause the driver to recover and repair a corrupted or inconsistent NTFS volume if it’s possible. The default behaviour is ‘recover’.
  • Fix: The driver may crashed when it tried to read a highly fragmented file or directory which was either corrupted or it was unreadable due to a hardware error. Upgrade is recommended.
  • Fix: The driver incorrectly returned ‘Permission denied’ error message if a requested extended attribute namespace wasn’t supported.
  • Fix: The lack of file backup timestamp support confused some applications on OS X.
  • Change: The user extended attribute namespace is supported by default on Linux.
  • Change: A volume having unclean journal file is recovered and mounted by default. The ‘norecover’ mount option can be used to disable this behavior.
