I have encountered an Ext 3/4 drive that Paragon ExtFS for Windows cannot mount or read. It's used in a hard drive attached to a TV set top box, initialised using the box as Ext3/4. I am assured that the file system is valid. Indeed, the drive in question can be read easily in a linux environment on my laptop.

But in Windows 10, interting the drive into a USB port results in a message from Windows stating that the drive is unformatted and asking if I want to format it now.

Is there a fix for this or is there a paid version that will mount and read this drive?
