Access Linux partitions from Windows

There are a number of options for accessing Linux partitions from Windows. One of them is Ext2 IFS for Windows .

Its functionality is indeed great, but what I really want is a program that won't show my Linux partitions whenever i check My Computer.
Explore2fs offers just that, showing the partitions within the program + it is portable, as there is no installation, just unpack&run.

  • Reads ext2
  • Reads ext3

  • 1.44Meg Floppy Disk Support
  • LS120 Floppy Disk Support
  • ZIP & Jazz Disk Support
