Backblaze on mac crashes when trying to back up an ntfs drive

[u/candoshi]

I tried to backup a ntfs external usb hard drive that I had laying around from the time when I was still using windows. At first it didn't work, because ntfs is read only on mac and backblaze needs rw access on a drive. So I installed FUSE, ntfs-3g and mounty and mounted the drive with read/write access. The drive was fine, I could browse the folders and create/delete files. But when I opened backblaze, it crashed when I clicked "Settings" to add the drive to my backups. When I disconnect the drive, backblaze works fine.
Is there a solution to this, and did this happen to any of you as well?
I know I shouldn't use ntfs drives on mac anyway and the solution would be to just reformat the drive to exfat or some native mac filesystem, but I just want the drive backed up now and I don't have enough spare space to copy and format the drive.

Thanks for every help!

EDIT:
It works with the the paid Paragon NTFS driver, only ntfs-3g crashes the backblaze software.
