Problem file

Hello,

I am using unison 2.53 under Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Everything syncs OK 
except one ntfs doc file which gives the error below (syncing with an 
ntfs partition on an external SSD). There was one unison entry for the 
file /Requests for articles.doc/ which synced fine left to right and 
another file with /.ntfs-3g-0000000001/ added at the end of the filename 
with an X for skipping. I had this same problem with this same file a 
couple of days ago. I at that time created an new document and pasted in 
the content, then deleted the original document and it synced fine, but 
the X for skipping has now returned for the same file with 
/.ntfs-3g-0000000001/ added at the end of the filename. I rebooted and 
get the same error for this same file. Both of the files (the original 
on both roots and the new one on the external SSD) open normally, and 
have the normal permissions (read-write for me and my group, read for 
others).

The original file /Requests for articles.doc/ is thus fine on both roots 
and syncs, but on the external SSD another file was apparently been 
added (by unison?) called /Requests for 
articles.doc.ntfs-3g-0000000001/. I deleted this file and I still get it 
in the sync list with an X (even though it is no longer present in 
either root).

So it looks to me that the archives file has been corrupted. Why is this 
happening and what to do?

Thanks and best regards,

     John
