Read Linux files using Windows

[Seraphim]

If you have a dual boot computer running Windows and Linux, odds are you can access your Windows files from your Linux partition but Windows doesn't recognize most Linux file systems.

Linux Reader is a Windows-Explorer like program that grants you read only access to your Linux partitions. So if you have a picture, video, OpenOffice.org document, or other file that you just want to access from Windows, Linux Reader could be the safer option.

Check it out. :thumbsup:

I wonder whether it uses GPL-licensed code. Would be slightly illegal.

Call me crazy, but why would you prefer a closed-source implementation which seems to have no additional functionality over the open-source one?

Well no one has said anything about preference yet but of course the open-source one that you linked is much better since it acts like a native filesystem driver. Now if only someone can make a Reiserfs one.
