How to enable NTFS write support on mounted partitions in Ubuntu 18.04?

I am able to mount ntfs drives automatically using Disks app in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. However, I am unable to write to the NTFS partions.

Below are my ntfs partions as per Disks app.

• /dev/sda3 (/dev/disk/by-uuid/162451E92451CC7D)
• /dev/sda4 (/dev/disk/by-uuid/B696F3C596F38461)

Is there are GUI based solution for enabling NTFS write support?

Why isnt it enabled by default?

My FSTAB file

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

EDIT

Adding out of mount command as requested by @mook765

~$ mount | grep sda4
/dev/sda4 on /mnt/162451E92451CC7D type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other,blksize=4096,x-gvfs-show)
~$ mount | grep sda3
/dev/sda3 on /mnt/B696F3C596F38461 type fuseblk (ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other,blksize=4096,x-gvfs-show)

Solution 1:

to mount the partitions in read-write mode:

run ntfsfix /dev/sdaX to resolve the problem. then remount the partitions.
