Mounty for NTFS

A tiny macOS utility that enables read‑write access to NTFS‑formatted volumes that are otherwise mounted as read‑only. When an NTFS drive is connected, the program detects it and offers to re‑mount the volume using the open‑source NTFS‑3G driver together with macFUSE, restoring write capability on macOS versions from 10.9 Mavericks through the latest releases, including Ventura and later.

The interface lives as a menu‑bar icon that indicates the current state—inactive, active, working, idle, or error—and provides quick access to a Finder window for the mounted drive. Installation can be performed via a direct download or through Homebrew, and the tool works with both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Mounty is aimed at users who need to modify files on external NTFS drives without resorting to third‑party software or command‑line tools, offering a lightweight, menu‑driven solution that leverages the free NTFS‑3G kernel driver.
