I have a problem with Ubuntu mounting windows partitions. When I turn on the computer, Ubuntu is not mounting my windows partition (sda3). It gives this error message:
Unable to access "Main memory" error shown here

To solve this issue, simply mount the NTFS partition as read-only. Rather than typing out all the steps, here is a tutorial to do what you want.
Alternatively you can go into windows and disable fast startup, this guide shows how to enable it, which is the opposite of what you're trying to do, however disabling fast startup just requires un-checking the box.Beware that by un-checking this windows will take longer to start, and this procedure is only applicable to windows 8, 8.1 and 10.

This answer already has the directions for mounting the NTFS as read-only and for disabling Fast Startup. – wjandrea Oct 21 '16 at 20:11

Open terminal and type
sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdXY
XY: label...eg sda3
Still You can't access one of the windows disc(one which windows is installed in)
For permanent solution: turn off hibernation(in windows)
Open command prompt as administrator and type
powercfg -h off
If problem occurs again after next bootup
Open run prompt from start menu
1. Type and Start msconfig.exe
2. On the general tab select "Selective startup" and uncheck "Load startup items".
3. On the services tab unselect all first
4. Runt the command "powercfg -h off" to turn off hibernation.
5. Reboot
6. If hibernation is still deactivated start msconfig.exe again and activate half of the services.
7. Repeat 5 and 6 until you find the service causing hibernation to be turned back on (don't forget to do step 4 if it is activated again).
