    Thumbs down [SEVERE BUG] ExtFS for Windows changed all my files permissions !!!!!

    Hi, I am trying ExtFs for Windows to access my Linux partitions.
    With it I have mounted my partition as read-only.
    When later I have rebooted my Linux OS I have discovered that all my files are read-only (with the 'write' bit off)
    I had to fix all my files by doing
    Code:
    for p in $(rpm -qa) ; do
       rpm --restore $p ;
    done
    chmod -R u+w /home
    Please FIX the software, which for me is USELESS because it changes my files' permissions.

    EDIT: after I fixed my files I booted again in Windows and mounted my home partition read-only.
    Now I have rebooted in Linux and AGAIN the files' permissions are read-only.
