Hi, A somewhat related topic to this issue,I am trying to use the open-source NTFS RW DXE driver developed by pete batard (https://github.com/pbatard/ntfs-3g) but am stuck loading the driver as RW (read write0 as it falls back to RO (read only). I am running UEFI shell in VMware® Workstation 15 Pro (15.5.7 build-17171714) Shell> ver

The original issue here: https://github.com/pbatard/ntfs-3g/issues/2 PS: Looping @dariusd because this challenge seems to be right up your alley EDIT: After further testing, it seems that it works on a physical target if i ensure that the cycle power (ie, restart / shutdown) properly and not via Windows Fast Boot. Instructions here (https://help.uaudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/213195423-How-To-Disable-Fast-Startup-in-Windows-10) show an option to disable. However, when I try to disable Fast Boot on a Windows VM, I do not see the option. In conclusion, therefore, my hypothesis is that VMware's power management is implemented differently which results in this issue, as described by OP. ----------------------------- Physical Workstation power menu [ref: https://help.uaudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/213195423-How-To-Disable-Fast-Startup-in-Windows-10] VMware's VM power menu
