Terribly basic questions are usually answered in the terribly detailed documentation.  :)

In this particular case, here:

> If I set a gid with e.g. chgrp where does Windows store that information on a local NTFS file system?

It’s over on the Security tab of the same window you’re looking at: “Group or user names”.

> how to do a chgrp with Windows means?

Click the Edit button below the “Group or user names” box.
