I cleared up a space on the C drive and installed Linux on that partition. Can Windows see files in my Linux partition?

When i installed Linux, i didn’t encrypt it but it is password protected. Thanks

    a 3rd partition formatted to FAT32

    exFAT is also pretty solid for this purpose and doesn’t have the file size limitations that FAT32 has.

      I Lost tons of data thanks to windows fast boot flushing back the old fat after rebooting to windows. Never anymore. Linux can write to NTFS , it’s much more reliable. Plus the default block size for exfat (when formatted from Windows) is huge
