Hi,

i have read that there are Linux File Systems for Windows.

But i have found only links in my mother tongue german:

Windows: ext4/ext3/ext2 lesen und schreiben – so geht's

Standardmäßig kann Windows keine Linux-Dateisysteme lesen wie ext4, ext3 und ext2. Mit einem kleinen Tool klappt es trotzdem.

Linux File Systems für Windows | Paragon Software

Einfach Festplatte mit ExtFS/Btrfs/XF-Partitionen anschließen und damit unter Linux arbeiten.
