TCE folder on a NTFS formatted partition is (in principle) a bad idea, but (better) doable if you have a kernel version 7.0 (just wait few months to be released in a Linux distro, or for December 2026 in Tinycore) and the new NTFS driver was compiled into the kernel. This new NTFS driver can read/write + many M$-windows specific improvements.

From the TC16 kernel configs.

x86:

--- Code: ---CONFIG_NTFS3_FS=m
CONFIG_NTFS3_LZX_XPRESS=y
CONFIG_NTFS3_FS_POSIX_ACL=y
CONFIG_NTFS_FS=m
--- End code ---

x86_64:

--- Code: ---CONFIG_NTFS3_FS=m
# CONFIG_NTFS3_64BIT_CLUSTER is not set
CONFIG_NTFS3_LZX_XPRESS=y
CONFIG_NTFS3_FS_POSIX_ACL=y
CONFIG_NTFS_FS=m
--- End code ---

My TC14 x86_64 shows ntfs and ntfs3 drivers present in kernel/fs/.
