I recently installed Ubuntu (full Ubuntu, not a persistent Ubuntu) on an external 1 TB Hard disk.
While doing so, I had the hard disk formatted to ext4 journaling file system. The OS works on the hard disk, and is completely readable within the Ubuntu system. However, the hard disk is not readable anymore on Windows systems (tested with two Windows systems). Is it because I changed the file system?
How do I reformat the hard disk if it's not getting detected by Windows (actually, the device starts up, and shows up under 'safely remove hardware' --but it's not showing under 'This PC')?
