We are not connected with any of them and you can basically choose any of them.Ī nice article that we found on how to use them is located at There are a number of different additional software tools that we could use to read/write information from and to the SD card when using Windows. Additional software for reading Ext4 file system We should probably do another whole course on the history of technology, but for now, we just need to know that Windows does not support Ext4 and that's why we must use and additional software tool to fix this. For a large number of reasons, involving fights for technological power, a lot of money and different technological camps that we have in the world of technology the Windows operating system can not by default read the file system Ext4 that our current SD card is using. The SD card has a filesystem called Ext4. Also, it uses Windows Explorer to view and extract files/data.Windows can not handle Raspberry Pi filesystem It provides read-only access to the Linux partition and does not allow you to make changes in file system partitions. This runs under Windows and allows you to access Ext2/Ext3/Ext4 Linux files. This tool also adds the IFS drives item to the control panel from where you can assign a drive letter to Linux partitions. You can view the Linux partition listed in the disk management as shown. It installs a pure kernel mode file system driver, Ext2fs.sys, which actually extends the Windows operating system to include the Ext2 file system. 2) Ext2 IFS (Installable File System)Įxt2 IFS provides Windows with full access to Linux Ext2/Ext3 volumes. Read-only support is fine, though, and doesn’t carry a risk of messing anything up. I’d be worried about this option, myself – a lot can go wrong.
While you can theoretically enable support for writing to Linux partitions, I haven’t tested this. You can have Ext2Fsd launch at every boot or only open it when you need it. It allows Windows to read Linux file systems natively, providing access to the file system via a drive letter that any program can access. Ext2Fsd is a Windows file system driver for the Ext2, Ext3, and Ext4 file systems.
