    If the Mac data is stored as part of Time Machine backups, you will not be able to access it from a PC. On the other hand, if you were using your Time Capsule as a NAS device, you should be able to access any files stored from any network device, regardless if it runs OS X, Windows, or Linux.

     

    If you situation is the latter than please check out this Apple Support article for the details. (Note: Although the article references an AirPort Extreme Base Station, it still apples for a Time Capsule.)
