actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
you need to add an entry in /etc/fstab. You will need to run:

sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g; sudo mkdir /media/windows; gksudo gedit
/etc/fstab

to get write access. Add the following line and press enter on the end:

/dev/sda5 /media/windows ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000 0 0

Save the file, the partition will now be mounted on /media/windows. You
can obviosly change this to any mount point but the mount point must
exist (a mount point is an empty folder and you can mount ANYWHRE except
in /proc)

What is CTRL+D for? Not heard of that one...
