OK so basically I have fast boot on and I went to Ubuntu Linux and I have a windows and operating system and now because I had fast boot on no USB port works now because this one is in the GNU GRUB it doesn’t read the ports And I can’t do anything please help
I have an internal drive with a partition I am no longer able to access:
You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents
Reason for it is a windows OS with fast boot. There are many solutions provided for this but none of them worked.
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o ro /dev/sda4 /media/windows/
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda4': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sda4' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
ntfsfix ends in unrecoverable error:
sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda4
Mounting volume... NTFS signature is missing.

Trying the alternate boot sector
Unrecoverable error
Volume is corrupt. You should run chkdsk.
.
sudo fsck /dev/sda
fsck from util-linux 2.27.1
e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
ext2fs_open2: Bad magic number in super-block
fsck.ext2: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks...
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
or
e2fsck -b 32768 <device>
I tried e2fsck but that did not work.
The only working solution is to boot into windows and disable fast boot, but I can no longer boot into windows.
I only want to recover my user data somehow is there a way?
Edit: Meanwhile I deleted all partitions with only Data left. This is how it looks like:
thank you
