    How do i fix this?

    Everytime i try to access the partition where Windows 8.1 is installed i get this error:

    Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /media/niels/60C6EB3CC6EB115 8: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks 2,nodev,nosuid, uid=1000,gid=10 00,dmask=0077,f mask=0177" "/dev/sda2" "/media/niels/60C6EB3CC6EB115 8"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
    Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Operation not permitted
    The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows
    properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option, or
    mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfi le' mount option.
    For example type on the command line:

    mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfil e /dev/sda2 /media/niels/60C6EB3CC6EB115 8

    How can i fix this?

    The answer is in the error message.

    If you dont want to delete the hibernate file, try:
    Code:
    mount -t ntfs-3g -o "ro,uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dm ask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sda2" "/media/niels/60C6EB3CC6EB1158"
    This should mount the disk ReadOnly

      Of course ideally you would start up Windows, shut it down properly and then try to mount again. If that's not possible you can use Luuks solution, though it might be problematic once (if) you get back to Windows.
