Alternative to Tuxera NTFS and MacFUSE? Im trying to mount files to an NTFS format drive, I read on the internet that either Tuxera NTFS or MacFuse work for such things. However TuxeraNTFS filled my USB drive with space that should be free after file deletion, and I had to use windows to access the drive and delete the hidden folders created by Tuxera. MacFuse never installed correctly and states that "MacFuse does not appear to be installed"..

Is there any other reliable program that 100% works with NTFS drives ?

Platform : rMBP Mountain Lion OSX 10.8

Thanks
There are several programs that provide NTFS support. However, I would hesitate to claim that any of these programs can provide 100% compatibility and support. 

Here's a subset of the NTFS list in Richard Austin's Blog Champion's discussion of OS X file system choices:


Tuxera - I've used this program with no issues in Lion and Mountain Lion
Paragon - site claims to support Mountain Lion, personally haven't used
OSX Fuse - a freeware successor, don't know if it works with Mountain Lion, personally haven't used


I don't have a retina MBP to test with, but any of these should offer you a good starting point. Since you've already tried Tuxera, Paragon appears to be your best bet, while OSX Fuse would be a good option to try out.
