A GUI tool to view Linux(ext2, ext3, reiserfs) filesystem from Windows !!
Posted by Ankush Acharya on January 13, 08
Experimenting with files, somehow i corrupted my Linux partition last night. Being a novice user the only option left was a fresh Linux re-install, but before that i needed a backup of the files i created on the Linux partition.
X-Server not starting and i need a backup of the files (Simply, copying the files to Windows partition would do…..tried a lot but of no use -> Windows (NTFS partition !!))
Finally, found a GUI tool Explore2fs which could recognize the Linux partition from Windows………. and got the work done !!
Hope it helps !!
PS: The tool is to be installed on Windows only !!
