multi-boot, HDD - NTFS - Wind 8.1 HDD doesn't run in Linux
I want to use HDD with NTFS partition under Linux, but I can't use it without disable this disk in Windows device manager. Linux can't open it, until I disable it in Windows. Can I open this NTFS partition in Linux, without disable disk in Windows?

Microsoft support said me, that I can turn setting in Linux, to enable this hdd in it.

To use NTFS volumes under linux you need to install ntfs-3g.
It is available from epel.

ntfs-3g is installed. There's a problem because Windows 8 make hdd own and busy and Linux can't open it.
NTFS partition isn't mounted.

How does Windows 8 make it busy? Is this a VM?
Re: multi-boot, HDD - NTFS - Wind 8.1 HDD doesn't run in Lin
no, this is independent OS. If I work in Windows, and didn't make hdd disable, I won't mount it in Linux OS

Do you have drive encryption turned on in Windows 8? I haven't dual booted a win8 machine yet so I'm not sure.

Double-booting Linux and Windows 8
When Windows 8 is restarted using its fast restarting feature, part of the metadata of all mounted partitions are restored to the state they were at the previous closing down. As a consequence, changes made on Linux may be lost. This can happen on any partition of an internal disk when leaving Windows 8 by selecting "Shut down" or "Hibernate". Leaving Windows 8 by selecting "Restart" is apparently safe.
To avoid any loss of data, be sure the fast restarting of Windows 8 is disabled. This can be achieved by issuing as an administrator the command :
powercfg /h off
You can check the current settings on :
Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > System Setting > Choose what the power buttons do
The box "Turn on fast startup" should either be disabled or missing.
