Did you try
udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdb1
Maybe the terminal shows a more helpful error message.
Solution:
sudo ntfsfix -d /dev/sdxX

Hi, I am on Arch Linux and after updating udisks to udisks2-2.10.1, I can't corr… ectly mount my NTFS drives.
I get the error: "An error occurred while accessing 'Old Seagate 4TB Storage HDD', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting /dev/sdb1 at /run/media/raiacad0564/Old Seagate 4TB Storage HDD: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error"
Before the update, everything worked as expected and I was able to mount my drives. I also tried downgrading systemd to see if it was the issue and I still had the issue. The only things I saw in the update that may be causing the issue is either udisks (this), libblockdev, or libnvme. Could also be a change conflicting with ntfs-3g. Feel free to correct me if it is one of those other packages.
I had this same problem today with an external Sandisk Extreme 500 GB.
So I open GNOME Disk utility, selected the drive, unmounted and mounted the drive a couple of times. It solved the problem.
But I thought it was some problem with the drive itself.
