About This App

ExtFS is a system file driver preference pane for macOS that enables full read and write access to Linux-formatted ext2, ext3, and ext4 partitions. It bridges file system incompatibility between macOS and Linux by allowing Mac users to mount, browse, create and modify files on Linux-formatted drives as if they were native macOS volumes. The driver integrates with Finder and Disk Utility, making cross-platform file sharing straightforward for developers, IT professionals, and users who work across both operating systems. A native Apple Silicon (Universal) build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

ExtFS is a preference pane component that ships as part of Paragon Software's ExtFS installer package for macOS, not as a standalone app. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed in the community, so an update is available. To get the native version, download the current ExtFS installer directly from Paragon Software's website and run it — the installer will automatically detect your Mac's architecture and install the appropriate native build. If you already have an older Intel-only version installed, the new installer will replace it. After installation, the ExtFS preference pane will be updated to the native build and you can manage your Linux drive mounts from System Settings just as before. No additional steps or beta participation is required — the standard download serves the native version on Apple Silicon Macs.
