HFSExplorer is an application that can read Mac-formatted hard disks and disk images. It can read the file systems HFS (Mac OS Standard), HFS+ (Mac OS Extended) and HFSX (Mac OS Extended with case sensitive file names). HFSExplorer allows you to browse your Mac volumes with a graphical file system browser, extract files (copy to hard disk), view detailed information about the volume and create disk images from the volume. HFSExplorer can also read most.dmg /.sparsebundle disk images created on a Mac, including zlib / bzip2 compressed images and AES-128 / AES-256 encrypted images. It supports the partition schemes Master Boot Record, GUID Partition Table and Apple Partition Map natively. You may be interested in the application if you're: • A user of an Intel Mac running Windows with Boot Camp in need of accessing the files on the Mac OS X hard drive. • Owners of HFS+-formatted iPods, that wish to access their content from within Windows or elsewhere (a user emailed me and verified that this works). • Users of PearPC or similar Mac emulation/virtualization software that wish to access the contents of their virtual hard disks (will only work if the disk image is stored in raw format, as in PearPC). File Viewer allows you to view any file on your Mac. Simply drag and drop any file or folder onto the program window. File Viewer supports playback of many common audio and video formats, and can display many image, Web, and page layout file types. Download Open All Files: File Viewer for macOS 10.8 or later and enjoy it on your Mac. Open All Files enables you to view and inspect virtually any file on your Mac. Simply drag and drop any file or folder into the app window to see more details. • People that need to access the contents of HFS+-formatted.dmg /.sparsebundle files. HFSExplorer is written mostly in Java 5, optionally using some Java 6 / 7 features, with some Windows-specific parts written in C in order to be able to get raw access to block devices, and to create a practical launcher application. Linux and OS X users should in most cases not need HFSExplorer for browsing file systems on devices, since there are native file system drivers available on those systems, but it seems to work fine if you need it. Linux users might find use for opening.dmg /.sparsebundle files. Installing First make sure you have Sun's version 5.0 or greater (OpenJDK works fine). Second, make sure you have administrator or equivalent privileges if you're going to access physical disks. Windows users only need to download the convenient installer (see the download links the top of the page), which will do everything for you. The installer will place two shortcuts to HFSExplorer in its start menu folder. The first, 'HFSExplorer', simply opens the application. If you are an administrator running Windows XP or Windows Vista with disabled, you will be able to access block devices. The second shortcut, 'Run HFSExplorer in Administrator mode', makes it possible to elevate your privileges. In Windows Vista, this is done with the User Account Control dialog, and in Windows XP a similar but not as fancy dialog is shown to make it possible authenticate as an administrator. If you want to access a partition on the disk of your computer, and you run Windows Vista, you should always start HFSExplorer in 'Administrator mode'. Users of Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD (and Windows users too, if they can not run an installer by any reason) can download the zip-file binary distribution (see top of page). Extract the zip file to a directory of your choice. *nix systems can use the hfsexplorer.sh script to start the application, and Windows users can use the file hfsexplorer.bat. Download mac os x for free. Windows Vista users can conveniently invoke UAC by running the VBScript hfsexplorer_vista.vbs. There is also a minimal unmaintained text mode program for HFS+ only, which is started by invoking hfsx.bat/hfsx.sh. Invoking the script file with no arguments prints usage instructions. Usage All users will have the File menu item: • Load file system from file This is for when the HFS+ file system is located on a file inside the current file system. One example is when you want to load a.dmg or.sparsebundle disk image. Another example is when you're on a UNIX-like system and want to access a block device (the file would be something like /dev/disk0 or /dev/hda).
