    I’m not completely sure but I think u can’t sudo mount rw, the only way I get it to work is with ntfsfix which does magic and releases the windows lock (but even this doesn’t always work)

      Really? I think it shows the files as locked, but you can actually do whatever in root 🤔.

      In either case, it’s just more painless to actually let it boot all the way than to interrupt the boot process.

        I wasn’t able to force it to mount rw without unlocking the drive first

        In fact the whole process is with sudo to begin with, so do we do sudo of sudo to force sudo to do the thing? (jk, but yea it needs sudo in any case)
