Cannot change permissions of partition












0














I cannot write anything to my Windows partition. Trying below command does not help.



$ sudo chmod 777 /media/pi/Windows 
[sudo] password for pi:
chmod: changing permissions of '/media/pi/Windows': Read-only file system


But when I do ls -l /media/pi/Windows I get drwxrwxrwx for all folders and -rwxrwxrwx for all files.

I am using Ubuntu 18.04
Codename: bionic

  • What is the mount command you used to mount the device (or fstab entry) and the output to lsb_release --code?

  • You cannot change ownership & permissions on NTFS formatted partitions. They only have settings based on mount. If issue is it really Windows hibernation is on? askubuntu.com/questions/145902/…

  • Are you sure that when leaving Windows you have shut it down completely? - if your symptoms are that paste, rename, delete options in file manager context menu are absent, most probably that's the cause
