Well, for a start you're running random shit with sudo. Don't do that.

Next, show us the permissions of /home/iulian/HDD

ls -la /home/iulian/HDD

i just solved it by doing this

# Static information about the filesystems.
# See fstab(5) for details.

# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# /dev/sda2
UUID=25d66f24-3779-4565-8a3d-74d12040ea14	/         	ext4      	rw,relatime	0 1
#/dev/sdb1
UUID=68CF38860D525ACD				/mnt/HDD	ntfs-3g		defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000	0 0

Unless there's something you'r not telling us, changing the mount options for /mnt/HDD shouldn't affect the permissions on /home/iulian/HDD..

Radu212 · 2019-09-22 21:30:07

why wouldn't i tell you i mean i am the one who's got the problem . i just looked through the wiki and i found that adding thoes two options changed the ownership of the drive

We have no idea why, but I'm pretty sure we know the what: /home/iulian/HDD is a symlink to /mnt/HDD, right? Or maybe a hardlink, or a bind mount, or something. That's the thing you didn't tell us.

WorMzy · 2019-09-22 22:08:36

Well, from what you've told us about the solution, I guess that /home/iulian/HDD is a symlink pointing to /mnt/HDD, which is why changing the mount options to a seemingly unrelated location fixed it. The output of ls would have told us about this symlink, or you could've included this information in your first post.

in that case it was my mistake ,sorry for that. didn't knew that symlinks changes things like that my bad .
