WINDBLOWS SLOP

If you're mounting the Windows partition read/write from Linux, Windows should have Fast Startup/hibernation disabled. A hibernated/dirty NTFS filesystem can prevent Linux from mounting it safely; the kernel ntfs3 driver can refuse a dirty volume.

Run Command Prompt as Administrator:

powercfg /h off

This disables hibernation and also disables Fast Startup, since Fast Startup uses the hibernation file.

To verify:

powercfg /a

You should see hibernation unavailable, and Fast Startup will no longer be available.

To re-enable both later:

powercfg /h on
