Dual booting to Windows 10, Linux Mint 18.1, turning off W10 Fast Boot doesn't let Linux mount partition read/write

I've set, unset, reset, the Fast Boot option and rebooted windows
after shutting down in various ways (standard, windowkey+X, and
shutdown command), and still, when I boot the linux live (Mint 18.1
x64 Cinnamon), it won't mount the windows ntfs partition saying it's
in hibernate mode.

As mentioned, when I've run into this before, disabling/turning off
the Fast Boot option in Windows 10 fixes it.

However, with current build 1607, and current updates (as of 4 days
ago, I think there are more updates to do at this point), turning it
off doesn't help.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Rich

I've NO idea what happened, but now the partition is mountable!

Just rebooted to windows this morning, did ANOTHER chkdsk that found
NO errors, shutdown, rebooted again (oh, should be of no relevance but
changed the pc name under windows) to windows, shut down, booted to
live linux mint and it mounted.

I'm glad it's mounted but sure would like to know what's different
from the times before where I did the same.
