I am running a Windows 7 VM on a Ubuntu system using VMWare Workstation 15 pro. I use a VMWare shared folder to work on files on both the host and guest. Whenever I modify a text file (a C file, or a header usually) on the Windows guest, the execute bit gets set on the Linux host. Is there any way to prevent this from occurring?

    MS Windows tells the NT sub-system to set the execute bit on all files (yes NT has execute bit). This is getting passed through to the host. I have never seen this, problem, when using Virtual-box. (Hope you get an answer)
