I can't change directory and file permissions which is in /mnt/ through elevated Nemo. But can change in /. Why?
Apparently, this happens due to Automount. Because when I mount manually, this problem doesn't occur.
I also changed /mnt/Storage to /media/user/Storage/ on auto mount, still the same problem occurs.
uploaded on reddit because lemmy doen't allow videos .sorry for the quality reddit squashed it. Also my user name is blurred.
Also this an automounted NTFS partition, if it has to do anything with this,
I tried restarting. Doesn't work.
I know about chown and chmod. But I wanna do it in GUI.

SOLVED
Include uid= and gid= as part of your mount options.
For More info look at this.
Thanks to this Chad @[email protected]
Your issue is that NTFS by default doesn't support the same file permissions as Linux uses.
You can change what permissions an NTFS partition will be mounted with.
You can also get around it with user files or something to have proper full permission support, but I'm not familiar with this.
Something like this thread should have all the answers: https://askubuntu.com/questions/11840/how-do-i-use-chmod-on-an-ntfs-or-fat32-partition/
(best is to avoid NTFS, if you can)
Thank You. I'm scared about possible data loss (if any) when changing NTFS permissions on Linux.
