    Hi all,

    If you're using both Windows and Linux operating systems, you are most-likely dual-booting your machine. And you have probably noticed that Linux can read data stored on Windows partitions easily, whereas Windows is blind to Linux.

    You can change that - allow Windows to read from and write to Linux partitions.

    Cheers,

    USA still the best. But barely.
    Is this also the case with Explore2fs?

    Only for ext2 systems. Explorer2fs can read ext3 as journaled FS.
