Dear Maintainer,

SpaceFM can’t mount one of my USB keys.
I tried to format it again (with Gparted, with dd, even with Windows 10) and
it’s still not mountable with SpaceFM. Here is the error message (containing a
few transparent French language):

État : Terminé avec erreur (code de retour : 5)
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdd1': Argument invalide
The device '/dev/sdd1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?

It’s formatted with VFAT, Windows 10 and Fichiers can mount it.
But when I want to unmount it, if I unmount it with Fichiers, SpaceFM crashes.
I must unmount it with SpaceFM.

Yours,

It might depend on what SpaceFM uses to mount local devices.

Do you have udevil installed and does it work?

    udevil mount /dev/sdd1
    udevil umount /dev/sdd1

Perhaps /etc/udevil/udevil.conf needs tweaking.
