How It Works

Easy to install:

 

The drivers are easily installed under both Mac® and Windows through user-friendly wizards, the way software is usually installed under each operating system. No additional configuration is required after installation. Just restart your computer and let it go to work for you!

  

  

Easy to use:

 

Under Mac® OS:  After installation every Windows partition works like a native Mac® partition! Mount any NTFS partition like a native one - no need to perform special commands to get access - just attach a disk drive or removable media formated as an NTFS partition and use it as you wish.

 

Under Windows® : After you've installed the utility, you can use a special unmapped folder in "My Computer" to browse contents, read and modify files, copy, create, open and delete files and folders on Mac® partitions from Windows. If you need to modify a file from a Mac® volume, you would copy it to a Windows partition first, make your changes, and copy it back to Mac® after the modifications are done.
