Windows 10: Windows 10 system suicide

Knoppix also told me that Windows wasnt closed properly but even if I get rid off the Hibernate File I am not able to do things. Its a SSD Drive NTFS. However I was able to mount it but not able to copy my files. The Harddrive is healthy as it says and I am 99% sure that this is not a virus. So, even though I can see the files, names and sizes correctly - I am not able to copy/move/access them - also not the copied files - not via Knoppix neither via Tails or Win 7. Knoppix keeps telling me that I don't have permission. Tails keeps telling me that I don't have Authorization and ask for a Password (which I never used). None of my files have ever been encrypted. Does Windows 10 happen to do that by itself?

Seems like Knoppix is getting me the closest to what I need but still that Permission issue gives me a headache. Not sure what other options there are to fix this......thank you for your help!!!!!!!

The screenshot below shows Tails Error Message when trying to access the partition.

 

Edit: Duh! The error message above does offer you a solution.

Assuming your drive is still /dev/sdc2…

From a terminal make a folder somewhere to mount to (shouldn’t really matter where but different distros have their peculiarities) and mount the drive read-only. On Ubuntu I would use the newer ntfs-3g driver, but from your screenshot maybe only the ntfs driver is available.

Code: mkdir ~/win sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc2 ~/win -o ro[/quote] Then open ~/win (or ls ~/win) and see if you can access the files.

Original message:

The NTFS improper shutdown issue can only be fixed by Windows. Perhaps if you attach the drive to a system running a recent version of Windows, check the drive is assigned a letter and is readable and then shutdown cleanly, it might fix that issue. But if you’ve already used the recovery tools USB you might have already done this — did you shutdown or just reset?

I’m not familiar with either Tails or Knoppix, but it might help to manually mount the drive rather than use a file manager. I’m guessing the screenshot is from mounting the original drive. What response do you get when you try to see the copied files? Where are they copied to? Another NTFS filesystem? FAT32?
