NTFS is not very well supported in linux, you should reformat
You can disable fast boot on Windows to remove the read only lock.
Please note that it is not a suggested way to run, nor install games. A program could modify the disk in a way Windows itself can't parse it, rendering it unbootable.
Thanks for the info!
It is a hack-y way to keep playing while I transition fully from Windows.
Did you get this fixed?
Only temporarily using the Shifted Reboot from Windows. I wanted to update and thanks when I would have move the Library to an ext4 or exFAT, but I had no time to play nor work on this lately.
If I'm not mistaken, when you mount whatever you're mounting, you need to specify the read/write permissions with the mount parameters. Trying to change the permissions after it's already been mounted won't work, afaik.
I had modified the automounting parameters already, but there was something Windows-side that made it impossible to write anyway. Shift-shutdown on Windows helped, but it's just a hack. Next step is to find a drive that would allow me to move all my stuff, and the Steam library on an exFAT or ext4 partition.
Okay I need a bit more information. Are you dual booting Linux with Windows? Tell me more about how this is setup, including what drives you're talking about
