Re:WinBtrfs – an open-source btrfs driver for Windows on Sunday April 07, 2024 @03:32AM (#39958952)

It wouldn't even get mounted. Then I realized i can just boot a live iso of linux and copy/move files to windows drive and to the btrfs drive. That what i am doing now, using Fedora Workstation live iso on USB drive with ventoy.
