Can't run game on Steam but runs well on windows
You could try using https://github.com/maharmstone/ntfs2btrfs to convert the drive to btrfs which would probably fix the issue. but even with the Windows driver, the performance is very poor in Windows so if you plan on using Windows anytime soon it might not be practical

Polybar not starting up and showing an error
Looks like it might be an issue connected with ntfs2btrfs, it's been around since October 2021 and still not solved. Here's the link. Also, im not sure if that's on your side or on Reddit side, but is your config file saved as .txt? If so, rename it to config.ini, maybe it'll help :)

Uh oh. Used WinBtrfs to run a balance check on the partition with the Linux OS on it and now the drive is locked and it's booting into emergency mode
