HFS+ on Windows Vista

Hi James,

for read-only access you can use HFSExplorer http://hem.bredband.net/catacombae/hfsx.html

The guy behind is planing to include write access for the future.

The only other option is MacDrive, but is a commercial program.

Have Fun

I use Paragon's NTFS driver for OS X; an NTFS FW drive.

Special characters in filenames on HFS+ can cause problems for Vista, so beware of that.

MacDrive7's latest is enough to result in Vista (at least 64-bit which is now suppose to be supported) to go into totally unresponsive. And it is the most annoying nag I've ever seen. I don't want or trust it still to write to HFS+ and it has other problems. Just totally unacceptable.

Paragon handles the other direction fine with version 6.5.

Disclaimer: I work for the people that make MacDrive.

I'd love to help with your MacDrive issue if I can as I personally believe that MacDrive or HFSExplorer are the best answers to the OP's question ("HFS+ on Windows Vista").
