How to mount drive from crashed Win 10
HP Model 700-56 AMD-A10 6700. Serial MXX32109PT Maximally crashed by Windows update.
SS Drive is in an enclosure USB connected to Linux Mint Sylvia HP laptop. It is the C: drive from the computer running up-to-date Windows 10..
The drive appears in linux "computer" It looks like some Windows program it trying to mount it to Windows.
Parts of the error message when I click "mount" in Linux.
Windows hibernated. NTFS partition in an unsafe state. Resume and shut down Windows.
Two goals: get data if possible, then install Mint Cinnamon.

Re: How to mount drive from crashed Win 10
From https://unix.stackexchange.com/question ... d-to-mount
So, I stress that this will destroy any unsaved data that is in the hibernated Windows session. If that is not an issue for you, you should be able to access the drive by running:
sudo ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdXN /path/to/mount
Change sdXN to your windows partition (e.g. /dev/sda1) and /path/to/mount to the actual path you want to mount to.
That should mount the drive correctly and since it will delete the hibernated session file, it should mount normally from now on.

Thank you very much.
Clarify "unsaved data", as if I was working and had a file open that I had edited but not saved, or do you mean any data on the disk that I have not yet recovered?

Re: How to mount drive from crashed Win 10
and to Quote from that same link:
& not be attempting to edit or modify any files on that crashed windows system.
IE: you only be attempting to copy your files from that crashed windows system,,"While it is generally a bad idea to try to mess with Windows configurations outside of the Windows GUIs (not just from *nix, but even by editing the files directly within Windows), Windows does occasionally botch sleep or hibernation mode that it can't recover itself from. In those instances, the only way to get it to boot again, or at least recover any data, is to remove the hibernation file and force Linux to mount it."

sudo ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdXN /path/to/mount
Change sdXN to your windows partition (e.g. /dev/sda1) and /path/to/mount to the actual path you want to mount to
When I plug the drive in an enclosure to the Mint LT, a message uhelper=udisks2,nodevk id=1000,gid=1000""/dev/sdc4/james-osbourne/windows" exited with non-zero status 14:windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
There are documents, pictures and video I will like to recover. That is the goal. My auto backup was not working and I had not checked in some time. The drive was screwed by a Win 10 update. Goodbye Bill, et al.
Regarding sudo ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdXN /path/to/mount
Should I make that sudo ntfs-3g -remove_hiberfile/dev/sdc4/ [What is path to mount?]
The drive is found at computer:/// and there has the name Sabrent Sabent:Windows. The enclosure is Sabent. I have also seen the drive as sabrent, but cannot recall where.

Re: How to mount drive from crashed Win 10
I am a Linux novice.
I have a Windows 10 SSD, the C: drive from a crashed Windows system. The drive is in a hibernated state with an unstable file system. My goal is to recover data
Ths drive is in an enclosure plugged into an HP laptop running Mint Cinnamon Sylvia.
I do not know how to specify a mount location.
I do not know the command to force a mount
Is there a better way to recover the data?
I have been trying every suggestion I can find. I do not think I am using the commands correctly.
I will appreciate detailed, step-by-step instructions that assume I know nothing.
I do not know how to specify the drive or partition: of which there are 5. I do not know how to specify a place to mount the drive.

Re: How to mount drive from crashed Win 10
the path or drive or partition that you wish to 'Mount'
can be found by Typing into Terminal
that's a lowercase L not a 1 if you manually type that . .
use the results of that to determine which partition it is, that your ext HDD is located as,
can be found by Typing into Terminal
Code: Select all
sudo fdisk -l

Re: How to mount drive from crashed Win 10
Sorry no one got back to you earlier ...
Make a mount point, let's call it WindowsHD:
Now, mount that volume read-only:
Note: presumes the Windows drive is "sdb" and the partition is the first one on that drive.

Code: Select all
sudo mkdir /media/WindowsHD
Code: Select all
sudo mount -o ro /dev/sdb1 /media/WindowsHD
