This does work to browse even large partitions of 500GB on an MBR partitioned disk, including ext4. However it's only a recovery (copy to another partition) tool, with preview of files but no way to open them.

Looks like we can only read files this way. We can not copy new files to ext4 drive thi way

Didn't work for me for a SD-card, ext2read did though.

Does not work at all under Windows 10. Cannot open by itself (inside list of drives) and when trying to mount under drive letter, throws a lot of nags about the need of purchasing pro version and mounts a drive that has only one file on it, called "Storage" in size of entire disk.

This works for me on Windows 11. But Ext2Read does not.
