+## Preventing NTFS Read Errors
+
+Due to the nature of NTFS, creating files/folders with characters Windows cannot read will cause disk errors (leading to games that don't launch), the most common issue is a `;` character in filenames that Proton creates on the NTFS disk.
+
+Fixing this is pretty simple. Create a symlink from the `/compatdata` folder on Linux to the mounted NTFS disk.
+
+Creating the symlink:
+
+```
+$ ln -s ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata /media/gamedisk/Steam/steamapps/
+```
+
+*If the `/compatdata` folder already exists on the mounted disk BEFORE the syslink, DELETE IT!*
