How to access Linux Partition through Windows

Hi Friends, i said on first meeting (10 Nov, 2007) that you can’t access Linux Partition through Windows but one of my friend Ameet Kaustav ( Black ) corrected me. There is a software called “Ext2IFS_1_10c.exe” ,The Ext2 Installable File System software has been designed and implemented by Stephan Schreiber, just run on windows and you can access your Linux Partition. Get it from http://www.fs-driver.org/extendeddl.html and ya you can use it for Ext3 also.

I was having problems with the driver ext2ifs installs. Nothing as such with ex2fs. Works fine for me.

Well! There are lots of softwares for doing the same, no idea which is the best, I have been using “Linux Reader” from DiskInternals. It doesnt allow us to read or open directly the target file. Instead you have to Save it on your Windows partition and then access it. Below is the download link.
