Thank you for your bug report. Is that still an issue in the newer
Ubuntu versions? If so could you describe how to configure those mounts
to be able to trigger the issue?

Title:
  Failure to mount NTFS partition confusing and unhelpful

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  While it is well known to developers what the following error message
  means, it is terrifying and not suitable for most end users:

  Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /media/stub/0123456789ABCDEF: Command-line `mount 
-t "ntfs" -o 
"uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" 
"/dev/sda2" "/media/stub/0123456789ABCDEF"' exited with non-zero exit status 
14: Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
  Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': 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.

  Ubuntu needs  a clearer dialog with the user without the techno babble
  (and no 'unsafe' - this is perfectly normal). In addition, if an
  acceptable solution is to 'mount the volume read-only with the 'ro'
  mount option, then a mechanism to actually do this should be provided.
