Not possible, due to how Windows is designed.
from ntfs2btrfs.
- Its not possible to convert it at the time that Windows runs chkdsk when the disk is in use?
- Can the boot disk be converted by using a USB stick that has a WinRE/Linux distribution on it?
By the way, I was able to convert a Windows Server 2003 VHD to BTRFS (minus the messages regarding compressed inodes, which still show up on the disk instead of being deleted).

- If you want to write such a thing, be my guest.
- Yes - by "boot disk", I mean "current boot disk".

How about you open this ticket and add a help wanted label?

- Converting the current boot disk shouldn't be recommended, or even allowed, for that matter. As for converting it pre-boot, that doesn't seem like a bad idea but it'd probably take quite a bit more effort to code.
- WinRE would have to have btrfs support and a copy of the ntfs2btrfs executable. As for a linux usb, it should work if compiled.
