ReadWrite access to W10 partition in dual-boot












0















Installed LinuxMint 19.1 alongside W10. In Linux I cannot access files in ReadWrite mode on the Windows partition - this was possible all along up to Windows 7. I used to keep my data on the Windows side so I could access these from both sides... The W10 data is shown with owner being root... Any idea how to circumvent that? Thanks a lot as I need to keep W10 active for specific applications but prefer running Linux otherwise

          In Linux in general only root can mount devices and therefore root only have write access to them. to overcome this you need to have ntfs-3g package installed which automatically does that for you. Or mount them with



          mount -t ntfs -o umask=000


          the umask will give everyone read/write permission.

          Try disabling windows fast-boot. By default it does some weird hybrid-sleep instead of shut down and that might be locking the drive. There's a guide here: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4189-turn-off-fast-startup-windows-10-a.html
