I've run into a problem. Ubuntu grub has crashed, and system boots into Windows automatically. I have tried boot-repair but Ubuntu doesn't even show up in bcedit command on Windows.

Anyways how can I see files and folders of Ubuntu partition from Windows 10 that I installed on Ubuntu?

I have a file I need to recover because I was working on it for a client.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

  • Try booting from live USB/DVD to access the partitions formatted `ext4`. – user68186 Feb 14 '18 at 20:28

    How to access Linux file systems from Windows is really a question about Windows which is off topic here but fine over on [SU]. Alternatively you can boot an Ubuntu live system (from a DVD or USB drive) and recover the files with that. – David Foerster Feb 14 '18 at 21:25
  • @DavidFoerster That's what I did, I got my files off of the partition. – Kyle.S Feb 14 '18 at 21:33

  • Sorry but answers that are Windows based are off-topic ;-) – Rinzwind Feb 14 '18 at 21:32

    This is old, proprietary software without support for operating systems that still receive vendor support themselves. Windows XP went EOL in 2014 and Vista even earlier than that. -1 – David Foerster Feb 14 '18 at 21:37
