I work with NTFS-Partitions and with FAT-Partintions. Is it better to select >>ntea<< (how big will the mentioned additional files be and will they be built once or will they become bigger every time I use some features?) or is it better to to select >>ntsec<< (which will not work with the FAT-partitions). What happens, when I use both? Also, there is a file >>ntsec.sgml<< mentioned. Where can I find this file?
