How to access Linux filesystem from Windows in a dual-boot machine





A problem from a long time back was how to access files in Linux filesystem situated in a dual boot system having both linux and windows partitions.As linux-ntfs project was making it possible to access windows filesystem, from linux, there was an increasing need to make the viceversa possible.



Explore2fs is a GUI explorer tool for accessing ext2 and ext3 filesystems. It runs under all versions of Windows and can read almost any ext2 and ext3 filesystem.

























This is supported in various versions of Windows including 98/ME/XP/2000/2003 Server etc.



The latest binaries could be accessed from this link:
