This is the error coming. I have shut down windows properly and yet this error comes.

Error mounting /dev/sda7 at /media/harshit/Movies and songs: 
Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sda7" "/media/harshit/Movies and songs"' 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/sda7': 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.

when you shutting down window's 8.1 instead of shutting down through the menu panel, shut it down using force command to do this

  1. Press windows button and R key when you are in window's 8.1.
  2. when the run prompt up type in that :-
  3. shutdown -s -f -t 00
  4. comment: -s for shutdown, -r for reboot use whichever you required.
  5. And press enter
  6. And when you reboot into ubuntu you can easily mount windows partition in it.
