Here are some windows settings you should apply. They will ease the maintenance and the use of alternate systems (if you'd like to do so).
Disable Fast Startup
Since Windows 8 the startup is much faster. However that comes with a great cost: the partitions information are stored on a file and only the current OS can access it. Meaning in case of failure you'll probably lost all your data. Even Linux will not be able to access the data.
I strongly advise you to disable that feature. Even though it might slow down the startup time, it will greatly help you in case of failure and data recovery!
- Go to control panel
- Hardware and Sound
- Power options
- Change what the power buttons do
- Change settings that are currently unavailable - This is the option at the top of page
- Disable Turn on fast startup (recommended) - at the bottom of the new page
Windows server simultaneous sessions
