This Linux File Systems for Windows supports Windows 7/8/10 and Windows Server 2008/2012/2016. The company has made their Linux file-system support compliant with Secure Boot for those in a locked-down Windows environment. But for the Btrfs and XFS file-system support, it's read-only access from Windows.
Linux file systems for windows full driver#
Paragon's Windows driver allows read/modify/copy/delete capabilities for EXT2/EXT3/EXT4 from Windows. ExtFS is what they are using to refer to EXT2 / EXT3 / EXT4. Paragon has long offered Linux file-system support to Windows while now they have bundled up ExtFS, Btrfs, and XFS file-system support together.

Windows is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation. (The screenshots section section contains an image of it.) (The screenshots section contains some images of it.) If you wish to uninstall the software, select "Add/remove Software" from the Control Panel.įurthermore, "IFS Drives" is installed at the computer's control panel, which allows you to assign drive letters to Ext2 volumes. It is a setup wizard which installs and configures the Ext2 file system driver. The "Ext2 Installable File System" software package is distributed as a single executable solution, complete with all of the features. The level of sophistication of the Ext2 file system driver implementation is comparable to Windows native file system drivers. (It uses the file cache of the Windows operating system.) Therefore it is performant. The file system driver Ext2fs.sys caches file data and the file system's meta data such as directories and all the on-disk structures of the Ext2 file system. Oplocks include enhanced oplocks on Windows 7 or higher, and directory oplocks on Windows 8 or higher. Specific functions of the I/O subsystem of Windows: Byte range locks, notification of changes of directories, oplocks (which are required for sharing files via SMB/CIFS). (A paging file is a file "pagefile.sys", which Windows swaps virtual memory to.) Users may create paging files using the Windows control panel for Ext2 volumes. Supports GPT disks if the Windows version used also does. (Please read the FAQ section, too.)įile names that start with a dot "." character or end with "~" are treated as hidden.

Supports use of the Windows mountvol utility to create or delete drive letters for Ext2 volumes (except on Windows NT 4.0). When a drive is removed, the corresponding drive letter is deleted. Implements the Ext4 Multiblock Allocator which improves the performance on Ext2 or Ext3 as well by a superior efficiency upon block allocation and by minimizing fragmentation of the volume.įull plug-n-play functionality. Supports some Ext4 features: dir_nlink feature, huge_file feature, and the uninit_bg feature which includes group descriptor checksums. Supports hash indexed (htree) directories (utilizes the so-called dir_index feature of Ext3). Has trim support for solid state drives (SSD) on Windows 7/Server 2008 R2 or higher.įiles larger than 2 GBytes.
