I am new to Linux I have Ubuntu 17.04 dual booted along with windows 10.

I am unable to create new folder, file , paste a folder/file to the D drive (Found in other locations in Linux Ubuntu).

However I am able to view and read the data present in my D drive(of windows) in Ubuntu but unable to make changes.

Is there any way to make changes like adding a folder or file to the drive?

Thanks.

NB. This is not necessarily the solution, but it is a practice that helps prevent your problem.

As noted by @Hemal, Windows did not shut down properly, technically. To ensure that Windows shuts down properly, you need to shut it down the proper way.

i.e.

  1. Press Win+X
  2. Navigate to shutdown using directional arrows
  3. Hold down Shift while pressing Enter

This procedure completely shuts down your windows and releases all drives of the machine.

  1. Check if windows is Shut down properly. Just start windows and shut it down.

  2. Just unmount and remount the file system with root user permissions as shown here.
