I have several 64GB USB drives that I re-formatted to ext3. Now, when I try to share one with my wife's Win10 system, it naturally won't read them. 

Does anyone have experience with a trustworthy, solid, and safe solution to get ext2/ext3 support in Windows? 

Thanks,

Eric

Any possibility to install the WSL on your wife's laptop?

It's still hacky, but it's less hacky than a lot of other options.
