Re: ntfs3 and ntfs-3g

vmread_error+0x4d/0x60 [kvm_intel]

I still don't understand. What can't he read?

Virtual Memory read? Can't it read something from the RAM?

Re: ntfs3 and ntfs-3g

how can I then read ext4 through Windows?

you don't - again
posix filesystems are not compatible with windows' security architecture
if you use wibdows - use ntfs or refs - if you use unix - use a posix fs
linux can work with ntfs because it just ignores all security features by not dealing with the windows crap at all and tricks the posix permissions by set it to 777
windows can't read other filesystems than fat, ntfs an refs - because it just doesn't support it

the only "proper" way to connect these two worlds is via a network share and either FTP or SMB

as already advised: if you no longer use windows get rid of tbe ntfs partitions

How can I reduce the size of an NTFS partition in Linux?

The way to get out of this is to backup the contents of the NTFS partition and then flatten that and create an ext4 partition and restore the backup onto that.
Only windows has proper tools to resize NTFS, efforts to do this w/ linux or macos etc et pp will most extremely very likely just result in data corruption and loss
