    Reading an EXT4 formatted usb

    I have a EXT4 formatted (from Kubuntu) usb drive and Windows 11 fails to read it. Have read quite a few articles and attempted to install/use WSL2 to mount the usb, but no go.

    Edition Windows 10 Pro
    Version 22H2
    Installed on ‎16/‎01/‎2023
    OS build 19045.2846
    Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4190.0

    Installing Ubuntu 22.04 resulted in a "WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80370102"

    Yet I feel WSL is a complete overkill for me. I don't need a VM or similar, only need to be able to read a EXT4 formatted usb on Windows 10 Pro.

    Thanks for your reply. I did checkout those third-party solutions, and then saw several posts where people had suspected either a virus/trojan , or the software doing random searching through files and registry. I'm really looking for a WSL solution, as it is a Microsoft solution.
