SD card and 2 user accounts

[Lars_Hennig]

When I switch to a second user account on my phone and back to the primary account the external sd card (exfat) gets unreadable. In this case only a reboot fixes the problem.
Is there any one else having this problem? What could I do to fix this behavior on A12?

EDIT: I my frustration about this behavior I bright up the following question here: And why can’t I use ext4 as filesystem for the sdcard anyway? Of course, this should be discussed in the linked thread below… Sorry!

Maybe you could proceed with the formatting question in the following topic to not have it spread too much over different Topics?

Use a different format for sd-card as portable storage (ext3, ext4, extfat)

I had problems with my Sandisk 512 GB U1 card with exFat so I ordered a SAMSUNG EVO Plus 512 GB which works fine even after formatting it under Linux. I wanted to try ext4 first. BTW I do not understand why this is not working for many Android versions and different devices, now. Except for AOSP or LineageOS based systems.

You are absolutely right, The ext4 topic is should not be discussed here, sorry!

Regarding the main question: Does anyone here have the same experience with 2 accounts and the external SD?
