Error - Failed to mount "Windows SSD" (on Kali linux)

Background

Sometimes when I boot my kali live usb, I face this issue: "Failed to mount Windows SSD".

Another reason why I hate windows..

I use the drive in windows, particularly the C:\ drive to store the info I gather during my missions.
This is because my USB is really old and only has a capacity of 16GB and is almost full after the ISO file was etched into it.

Core Concepts

• Hard drives
• Defragmentation
• File Systems

The Problem

This happens when the disk is in a "dirty" state, due to Windows not shutting down cleanly, or the disk being corrupted.
One of the causes for this is the "Fast Startup" feature in Windows.

The Solution

• Disable Fast Startup on Windows
• Run Windows Error Checking
• Run chkdsk from cmd
• Run defragmentation ?? not sure

Disable Fast Startup on Windows

Run Windows error checking from Windows

Run chkdsk from command prompt

• Press the Windows Key and type cmd
• Right-click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
• Type the command for the drive you want to scan and press Enter (for example: chkdsk C: /f /r).
• If you are scanning the drive Windows is currently running on (usually C:), the system will tell you the volume is in use and ask to schedule the check for the next restart. Type Y and press Enter, then restart your computer to let the scan complete.

Note:  
It may take a while for windows to complete fixing the errors. I will update this post when I get to know more about why this happens and how to avoid it, if that is a possibility. But for now that is not a priority.

Run defragmentation from Windows
