MacOS Crashes After Bootcamp Installation - NTFS driver to blame

I still own an Intel i9 MacBook and decided to install BootCamp to play PC-only games.

After I got Windows 11 installed on a BootCamp partition, my MacOS started crashing randomly.

Days of research showed that there might an issue with NTFS partition.

1. I’ve removed iBoysoft NTFS driver
2. I’ve disabled automount of the drive by using vifs tool and pasting noauto mount flag:

1

UUID=7727ED95-7E4C-3A6F-A25C-79F2D5F0721B       none    exfat   rw,noauto

I can confirm that two weeks after this change there is no issue of Macbook freezing or restarting.
