NTFS External hard disk mount problem

[tbg]

Reboot after updating.

Be sure you disable fast startup in Windows.

Also test the LTS kernel.

See a fix/workaround below:

Can't mount hard drive after system crash

Try mounting the NTFS drive in fstab using the ntfs-3g flag. see my example below: UUID=7C1A71921A714A62 /mnt/7C1A71921A714A62 ntfs-3g nofail,noatime,rw,user,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=022,fmask=133,windows_names,auto 0 0 Obviously, you need to substitute your drives UUID in my example. Mounting using ntfs-3g flag in /etc/fstab appears to work. man fstab Be sure to copy a backup of fstab before editing: sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak

If you test the linux-lts kernel you may not need to modify fstab.
