Looking for a bootable offline NTFS File Mananger

Spiderkeys · Jan 20, 2016

I'm always been looking for a bootable lightweight NTFS File manager, where I can mass replace windows system files.

I normally have dual-boot Win machine so it hasn't been a problem, so I need one I can boot from u USB or even make a bootable partition along windows where I can go to replace Window files.

Do not suggest Windows CD as I don't have a CD/DVD Drive installed either.

Something like gparted might do what you need in terms of allowing you access to Windows files systems. Heck just about any USB linux distro should do this.

The question I have is why do you want to do this?

COLGeek :

Customisation, tweaking, reshacking dll,etc, files etc, that are normally in use.

Anyway I try the gparted link, I know there's mini partition wizard free version, but that only let's you view hard drives contents but not edit them.

Any linux distribution can mount ntfs as read/write for many years using ntfs-3G module... very easy and out of the box support on most linux distributions

Customisation, tweaking, reshacking dll,etc

Sounds like you would be better off just using linux instead of windows.

Build a script to move/copy/replace files from the bootable source (via Linux which is what the aforementioned gparted distro was as well). You are not likely to find a ready made solution, otherwise.

Good luck.
