partitioning - unable to mount ntfs partition created inside widows 10




If i try to open any of partition, I get error message in a box.



Error mounting /dev/sda8 at /media/viratraaz/Documents: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sda8" "/media/viratraaz/Documents"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.

Failed to mount '/dev/sda8': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown
Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume
read-only with the 'ro' mount option.


You need to disable Windows fast start-up option.



Open Control Panel -> Energy Settings and select Change what the power buttons do.




Choose Change settings that are currently unavailable, scroll down and uncheck
Turn on fast start-up (recommended).



Restart the computer and you won't have this error anymore.
