Windows 10: Unable to copy Mac originated files from EXT4 NAS to windows

I have jpg 614kb image that came via a Mac. Drag and drop from Synology volume to anywhere on win10 or win11 causes error "file is no longer there"I asked over at Synology forum but have not got answer yet.Windows has no problem accessing the file, just cannot copy it.I can open the file in edit mode then save it on the destination windows system. The file is only 610kb so lost about 4kb of probably Mac meta data. Just guessing.OR I can put a flash drive in the NAS and use the NAS File System to copy the 614kb file to the flas

Unable to open file on a NAS Drobo 5N when file is created in MacOs

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand your concern as you are unable to copy any file from NAS drive that is created on a MAC and uploaded it on NAS. We appreciate your effort in providing us the video demonstration.



It’s very surprising, that the file created in Windows 10 can be accessed on a MAC but the issue occurs on the other way round.



Let me point you in the right direction, where you would get the appropriate help for this issue. I would suggest you to post your query in
TechNet forums, where we have experts and support professionals
who are well equipped with the knowledge on NAS drive
to assist you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps.

Windows backup application that supports EXT4?

Hello

My question isn't specific to Windows 10, but this forum has a lot of traction so I figured I could ask here.

I run an automated backup job every day to copy files from my main drive to a second drive in the same computer.
I got hit recently by ransomware, which encrypted files on both disks. Thankfully, I had a backup on another drive that was recently disconnected so didn't lose important files.

As a cheaper alternative to getting a NAS to run eg. rsync between Windows and the NASI was thinking of…

• partitioning the second drive as EXT4
• running a Windows backup application that can access EXT4 partitions natively, so that the partition would still be off-limit to Windows

Is there such a thing?

Thank you.

 

Java.nio.file - Copying files

You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
