The prompt also suggests he was in the directory before mounting the
Windows partition on top of it.

I'd expect him to continue to see the content of the directory in the
root file system when this happens.

i.e.

cd /media/windows
ls #-- see empty
mount /dev/sda2 /media/windows
ls #-- see empty
ls /media/windows # see contents
cd /
cd /media/windows
ls # see contents
