but I installed Ubuntu & removed Windows and all .
All is running fine but I just can't open one of my disks , this is the error :

Error mounting /dev/sdb5 at /media/imad/Disque local: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sdb5" "/media/imad/Disque local"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).

Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.

Failed to mount '/dev/sdb5': Operation not permitted

The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown

Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume

read-only with the 'ro' mount option.

I asked this question before but no one had an idea , help please .

The most likely explanation is that you had hibernated your Windows install instead of shutting it down. The normal solution is to simply boot into Windows and then shut it down cleanly but since you have uninstalled Windows, that's not an option.

So, your other choice is (from man ntfs-3g):

   remove_hiberfile

          Unlike  in  case  of  read-only  mount,  the read-write mount is

          denied if the NTFS volume is hibernated.  One  needs  either  to

          resume  Windows  and  shutdown  it  properly, or use this option

          which will remove the Windows  hibernation  file.  Please  note,

          this  means  that  the  saved Windows session will be completely

          lost. Use this option under your own responsibility.

So, just add the remove_hiberfile option and try to mount it again:

sudo mount -t "ntfs" -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdb5 "/media/imad/Disque local"

or

sudo ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sdb5 "/media/imad/Disque local"

That should mount the drive correctly and since it will delete the hibernated session file, it should mount normally from now on.
