How To Completely Uninstall And Clean Paragon Ntfs For Mac
Ok, so I managed to get it 'partially' working by uninstalling, deleting any traces of files related to Paragon NTFS, releasing the license, reinstall and reactivate. Now I am able to write to my NTFS volumes. Powerful pdf tool a-pdf merger for mac. However, there is still no option to format a drive with NTFS in Disk Utility (El Capitan), NTFS is not listed amongst OSX Extended, FAT and ExFAT. I am afraid to reinstall it again for fear of breaking it once again.
In any case, something is not right here, I (we) shouldn't have to go through this hassle to get it working. Paragon - please do something. Update - in my attempt to try different scenarios. I actually installed a completely clean copy of El Capitan (from scratch) on a completely empty hard disk, and then installed and activated NTFS 14.0.332 (thinking that maybe some other drivers on my base iMac may be causing conflicts with the Paragon drivers). So Yes, it can still write to my NTFS drives but Disk Utility still have NO option to format a drive with NTFS and I can also confirm what fotensity said above - it does not see the partition, file system is unknown, writable is no, etc. So I then proceeded to uninstall it, downloaded a trial copy from (which has a version of 14.0.382), installed it and it gets activated right away. Tried my tests again, same results as above - can write to the NTFS drive but Disk Utility has gone all confused.
This is really bad. I am tempted to revert back to Yosemite and go with NTFS v12 again but will give Paragon some time to respond to this significant issue.
