Then two days before I install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS in my laptop. This partions are seen by clicking in other locations tab in ubuntu , it is shown as /dev/sda5, /dev/sda6 and /dev/sda7 . Yesterday I successfully create folder on /dev/sda5 by right click . But today I am unable to create new folder ( either by right-click or by ctrl+shift+N ) . What can I do ?

The problem is caused by Windows 10 default fast Startup setting.
Boot Windows
Turn off Fast Startup in Systems Settings:
- Open the Control Panel (icons view), and click on the Power Options icon.
- Click on the Choose what the power buttons do link on the left side. (see screenshot below)
- Click on the Change settings that are currently unavailable link at the top. (see screenshot below)
- Under Shutdown settings, uncheck the Turn on fast startup box, click on the Save changes button. (see screenshot below)

Boot Ubuntu
The new partitions should now work as expected.
Hope this helps
