Are you trying to read and write to NTFS drives on Mac? Well, the method I'm about to share with you is a decent solution, but it's not without its drawbacks.
First off, you'll need to install Windows 10 on your Mac using Boot Camp Assistant. This will require partitioning your hard drive and installing Windows alongside macOS.
