To be clear about the shift key which is universal for ending Windows hibernation schemes: Press the left shift key down first and do not release it while clicking on shut down and hold the shift key down the entire time it takes for the computer to turn off. Do not release the shift key until the computer powers down, and you must be shutting down from a Windows *administrative account as well. Normal user account will not work.

After doing everything above  -  if Linux Lite STILL cannot access the W-10 partition

Boot into Windows 10  +  From an elevated DOS window  (Win+R) CMD

type   powercfg -h off  PRESS Enter

Shutdown completely  /  Reboot into Linux Lite and you "SHOULD" be able to access Windows 10 partition

I hope this helps,
 ;)

Is problem solved yet?


If tutorial for disabling Fast Startup isn't working for some reason, then follow other tutorial I linked to before to disable ability of Windows to hibernate at all.  That will definitely solve problem because Fast Startup can't work without being able to hibernate.

All of the answers here should have worked as that is the way to force an unmount of the windows 10 partitions. My only other solution is to try changing the bios setting to legacy boot and see if that stops this. Getting off of secure boot may be the answer. Try googling your motherboard if you do not know how to enter the bios. OEM's use Fkey numbers like F2 and user built systems usually use the Delete button. You might also try looking around to see if you can delete a hibernation state file on the partition from Windows.

Try holding the Shift button while clicking the Shutdown button. This is suppose to override hibernation. Also try opening the command line (winkey +r) and typing:
Code: [Select]
shutdown /s /t 0

If that works you can create a shortcut to the command on the desktop to make things easier to shutdown.

Here is screenshot shown on Win10 tutorial I referenced before:



When you ran through instructions, did you click on area shown by yellow "Click On" area in that screenshot to "change settings that are currently unavailable"?  Or did you just uncheck the Fast Startup box under "Shutdown Setting"?

If all else fails, disable ability of Windows to hibernate at all using this tutorial.

Try tutorial again, but make sure you reboot (not shutdown) when done.  Just as insurance reboot into Windows first, check the settings again to see if they remain as you changed them in tutorial.  If yes, then reboot into LL and try mounting partition again.  If it still doesn't work, describe exact procedure you used to try mounting the partition.  I'm assuming you are just clicking on its entry shown in file manager under "Devices" section.  Is that what you're doing, or are you trying to mount in some other way?


EDIT:  Just as I was about to post, I see firenice03 posted this:

Just to add.... and assuming its still showing hibernating...
Windows must be shut down (not restarted)...
I'm not 100% sure, but I seem to remember reading just the opposite of this -- that Windows needs to be rebooted instead of shutdown when disabling Fast Startup.  (Just the opposite when enabling Fast Startup -- shutdown instead of reboot.)  I could be wrong about that though.


@ anon,
Try it both ways just to cover all bases.
