How do I mount a NTFS drive for use with steam?

Issues & Assistance Unsupported hardware | Dual boot

Not fancy but works without issue.

# /dev/nvme0n1p3 LABEL=Windows-SSD
UUID=6A5E21CD5E21933D	/windows  	ntfs3      	defaults,noatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077	0 0

For the NTFS3 kernel driver:

mount -t ntfs3 -o ro,iocharset=utf8,dmask=027,fmask=137,uid=$user,gid=$group /dev/mapper/vmvg-workdrive_snap /mnt/place-to-mount

As you can see, some of the -o options have changed, others like windows_names are gone!
