It’s a ntfs sata drive and after power outage it shows this after i put in my password An error occurred while accessing 'SSD SATA', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting /dev/sda2 at /run/media/adam/SSD SATA: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error Please help.

My understanding is that NTFS is complex and hard to work with, so errors are hard to fix automatically. Either:
ntfsfix -b -d /dev/sda2- Ignore errors for now (not recommended)
- Log into Windows and
chkdsk- Actually fix filesystem errors
There are probably other options. These are the ones I’m familiar with.

ntfsfix -b -d /dev/sda2

In windows it shows the drive is okay but when i go back it still doesn’t open.

I’m just gonna format it to exFAT to get it to work on both systems.
For your use case (Linux ↔ Windows sharing), the lack of journaling is the main tradeoff. If your drive is mostly read or you unmount cleanly, exFAT works fine. If you get power outages frequently, NTFS with ntfs-3g is safer.
