That's to be expected.
Windows has no support for UNIX/Linux filesystems (ext4
in this case).
There is at least one program (for example, etx2fsd
) that can be installed on Windows in order to read/write ext2/3/4
partitions, but I strongly recommend against trying it.
If you need to share data between the two OSes, then create a separate NTFS partition or use a cloud service.
There are no good reasons to be accessing the system partition of one OS from another in dual boot. It's usually a recipe for disaster.
