Description

The default explorer dosen't support some file systems like HFS, HFS+, APFS, EXT/2/3/4, MFS etc (although the only ones actively used are HFS+, APFS and EXT4).
It would probably be quite hard to implement, especially the apple ones as idk if the source is available, but there are programs out there like paragon's apfs windows ([https://www.paragon-software.com/home/apfs-windows/](url)), diskinternals linux reader ([https://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/](url)) etc.
There are definitely other things with higher priority than this but when the time comes this would be quite nice to have built in imo.
