With Ext2Fsd, users can have native read and write access to the ext2, ext3 and ext4 file systems through an automatically assigned drive letter that any program can access, just like any NTFS or FAT32 volumes. In order to access and connect to Linux volumes in Windows operating system, try one of the following applications, which add support to Windows so that it can access, open, read, and possibly write to partitions configured with Linux filesystem.Įxt2Fsd (short for Ext2 File System Driver) is a free open source file system driver for Windows that adds support for ext3, ext3 and ext4 file systems. Thus whenever you plug in or connect a disk drive formatted as Linux partition to Windows, it won’t recognize it, instead asking you to delete and recreate the volume or format the volume. If a volume or partition of a storage media is formatted as a Linux filesystem, such as ext2 (second extended filesystem), ext3 (third extended filesystem) or ext4 (fourth extended filesystem), then you may have problem accessing and reading the Linux partitions in Windows system.Įven though Linux has built-in support for Windows FAT32 and NTFS partitions, but Windows does not have built-in capability to access, read and/or write to Linux partitions without third-party software.
Some users may also dual-boot Windows and Linux. Linux has been one of the most popular operating system that powers various NAS (Network Attached Storage), routers, gateways, IoT (Internet of Things), computers and etc.
