I have a dual boot (Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 8) system. Both systems have access to an NTFS "DATA" partition which contains all my images, documents, music and some application data like Chrome and Thunderbird Profiles which used by both OS.

Everything was working fine in my Dual boot Ubuntu/Windows 7, but after updating to Windows 8 I am having a lot of troubles. First, sometimes, I add some files from Ubuntu into my DATA partition but they don't show up in Windows. Sometimes, I can't even use the DATA partition from Windows. When I try to save a file it gives an error "The directory or file is corrupted or unreadable". I need to run checkdisk to fix it but after some time, same error appears.

Before upgrading to Windows 8 I also installed a new hard drive and copied the old data using clonezilla (full disk clone).

Here is the log of my last chkdisk:

Chkdsk was executed in read/write mode.  

Checking file system on D:
Volume dismounted.  All opened handles to this volume are now invalid.
Volume label is DATA.

CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)...

By default, Windows 8 doesn't cleanly unmount filesystems on shutdown, it seems. I've seen this mentioned elsewhere on StackOverflow. (W.r.t to the UEFI boot partition!) They gave a command-line method to disable it, but this GUI method is almost certainly the same thing:

http://www.askvg.com/fix-windows-8-restart-and-shutdown-problems-by-disabling-hybrid-shutdown-feature/

I'm surprised this would apply to separate data filesystems, but it does seem worth looking at.

  • interesting. This makes some sense and might explain some troubles I also have with shared profiles of chrome, thunderbird etc. I am running a chkdisk and a defrag right now and I have disabled that option. Hope it works.

It's probably because your win8 has the "fast startup" enabled. So, when you turn your windows off, it saves the information about the state of mounted partitions to reduce time for the next boot. So when you copy or change a file with ubuntu, windows will not recognize it because of its previous saved state for the partition.

The solution seems to be disabling win8's fast startup feature. Here are the instructions for that. http://itsfoss.com/solve-ntfs-mount-problem-ubuntu-windows-8-dual-boot/
