My external ntfs hdd is automounted with windows restrictions on file names (:, ? etc.) and I can't copy any file that contains these symbols to the hdd. However, when I mount it with sudo, everything works fine. Previously there was no such problem. Is it because of some changes in ntfs-3g? Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Whatever automounts the drive likely passes "windows_names" to the parameters.

Ok, but how do I catch the culprit? I'm on KDE. Any advice? I don't remember this strange behavior previously.

a) did you check the "mount" output on whether that's actually the case?
b) well, what does automount the drive? Some kde daemon, udiskie, … etc.?

Well udisks2 definitely does mount it that way by default: https://github.com/storaged-project/udi … tem.c#L391
But it seems to be quite hard to dig up anything on how to configure that differently. Or rather it's not really implemented yet to configure that differently: https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/issues/609

Ughh.
In that case you best exclude the drive from the automount daemon (solid-device-automounter kcm?) so the systemd on-demand mount configured in fstab can kick in.

Thank you for your answers and your help.
