Post From: Disable NTFS compression on chart data files

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but there is a legitimate reason to disable compression. I do understand that SC advises against using wine to run SC in linux, but many do successfully. If the linux file system in use already offers compression (zfs does out of the box), and the file system is not ntfs, then SC trying to compress it again is futile. Please tell me how is this functionality implemented in SC? Is SC just setting the compression property and letting windows take care of the actual compression? I think that is the case. Does SC check if the underlying fs is indeed ntfs? And for some reason the user perhaps is say running windows but using exfat for some reason? Can SC check it doesn't in fact have ntfs and not try to compress or does it already do that? Thanks. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-09-10 19:15:21
