How to use ext4 filesystems in Windows?

Ext2Fsd

If the Windows drive letter is not automatically assigned for an ext2/3/4 partition, select the partition and press F4 to assign a drive letter automatically. Alternatively, you can press F10 for mountpoint management and choose which drive letter you want to use, then press [Done] to mount the ext4 filesystem.

There’s one important thing that has to be followed when using Ext2Fsd:

When you want to unmount an ext4 partition, first select the partition in Ext2 volume manager, then press [F11] to “Flush cache to disk” and then press [F10] to open “Change drive letters” where you can press [Remove] to remove the Windows drive letter that was assigned to the ext4 file system.
