Does NTFS support Dual booting?

Yes, NTFS (New Technology File System) can support dual booting, as it is compatible with multiple operating systems, including Windows and some Linux distributions. However, while Windows natively supports NTFS, many Linux distributions may require additional drivers or configurations to read and write to NTFS partitions. It's important to ensure that the bootloader used for dual booting can recognize and manage the NTFS file system properly. Overall, dual booting with NTFS is feasible, but compatibility considerations should be taken into account.
