EXT4 driver gives Error 0x800700FE on some files,

[HWAHKBERG]

I'm recovering files from an EXT4 drive previously in my "Open Media Vault".
OMV is currently not so fond of recognizing it, so I have taken it out and connected it to my Win10 PC.
I'm using a EXT2/3/4 driver called "EX2 Volume Manager" which can mount the drive as a drive letter.
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd/)

Most file copy runs smoothly but now and then i get A popup

---

"Error, Cannot write xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
"Please remove the write protection"
"The specified extended attribute name was invalid"

---

BTW, Copy/paste in explorer gives the same error.

I understand the problem as the EXT4 attribute is not supported on NTFS so tell the user,

When reading the file with whatever tool capable of displaying it, no problem is reported.
(E.G. TC F3 works fine for a .JPG file, also a video file could be loaded in e.g. Avidemux and saved to the new location (without re-coding it) without problems.)

I also learned the TC ZIP can store a zip on the destination without issues. (Cumbersome, but doable)
So:

• 1) Is there a way to to tell TC queue copy [F2] function to disregard files with the above "problem"?

• 2) Is there a smarter function than ZIP that would do the same?

When bulk copying I have set the overwrite to "3 skip all" and have checked "Skip all which cannot be opened for reading"

Best solution would be a way to tell TC to disregard extended attributes that is not supported on the destination, like ZIP does

Ideas are be appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Henrik.

Maybe you could first (temporarily) copy the files to a FAT partition...

Hi petermad
That idea about using a FAT partition indeed worked
But still prefer not to that detour around a FAT partition for the majority of files without this problem, so it would be good if a tweak exists to let TC skip those "non copy-able" without further ado than (possibly) marking it in the log.

Thank you.
