I use Linux Mint on a dual boot with Windows 10.
Problem is I can't write/modify "cut or delete and so on" any data on other partitions. When I use Linux I can only write to my file system, but when using Windows I can write anywhere.
What should I do to write to other partitions when using linux?
When I click properties at partition it tells me: "you are not the owner".
When I click properties of some folders I can't cut or delete.

The default login for Linux Mint is as a regular user, (suppose that user name is "ak"), and user ak's write permissions are usually only for what's in /home/ak. The other partitions are not in /home/ak.
In Linux, writing to other partitions usually requires logging in as root.

Or mounting the partition with the correct permissions.
