This is an issue with the NTFS journal file (named $LogFile). You either
need to use
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/f -o force
or if you also have a hibernated Windows then use both mount options like
mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/f -o force,remove_hiberfile
The only functionality of the 'force' mount option is to reset the NTFS
journal file (which solves the above problem). It's going to be renamed
to 'reset_journal' for clarity.
