Error keep on getting when I try to mount my Windows 10 hard drive to get documents off it.

Here is the error code:

Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /media/linux/7C2A2F6F2A2F259C: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000" "/dev/sda2" "/media/linux/7C2A2F6F2A2F259C"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown
Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume
read-only with the 'ro' mount option.

Maybe it has something to do with the fast startup setting in Windows 10. It's enabled by default and is a hybrid shutdown.

Control panel - power options - choose what the power buttons do. Uncheck the "Turn on fast startup".

Now shutdown Windows 10 and boot Linux again.
