My 1tb hdd is read-only. I followed the steps shown here

and got this output:

WARNING: blksize option is ignored because ntfs-3g must calculate it.
The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Falling back to read-only mount because the NTFS partition is in an
unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation
or fast restarting.)
Could not mount read-write, trying read-only

Tough part is that my Windows installation is corrupted after my system crashed & took my time, gpu, and ssd with it (which is also when I last used Windows). This has happened several times before but the solution was to simply do a clean shutdown on Windows, which I can't even do anymore. Also not sure if re-installing windows (which I might do sometime soon) means I can clear the cache. If anyone can help, I appreciate it.

I installed Windows 10 using the same disk alongside Debian in another partition, and it started to appear this error. My solution was to run as superuser the ntfsfix command on the partition with the problem.

$ sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdx
