I have ubuntu on my pc for half year right now. However recently I got annoyed by not enough space in my folder for files(ubuntu is on small 80 gb ide drive). So I partitioned my 750gb drive using exfat (drive has windows 10 on it) and mounted my partition. I was able to move files to it, change default download directory etc. The problem started, when I rebooted machine, and drive didn't mounted automatically. So I opened disk utility, checked custom mounting options, and checked auto mount. I rebooted pc, and drive mounted, but just for read. I've tried to edit /etc/fstab, but it did not help. I am using Ubuntu 20.04. Has anyone had this issue before? I would really appreciated any help.

EDIT: this is my fstab line mounting drive /dev/disk/by-uuid/9188-D2D0 /mnt/9188-D2D0 auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0

Are the permissions correct? You can check this by command 'sudo nautilus'. Ensure user and groups have read/write permissions. Save. Reboot. –

I thought, that I checked every possible setting, but it turned out, that I forgot about most basic thing, changing permission. I opened nautilus as sudo user, changed permission. Without rebooting I haven't seen any change, so I rebooted, and drive mounted like a charm. Thanks for help.
