Stopped working
bandsinistre- Pros
- While it was working, it worked.
- Cons
- Stopped working after a while. Said 'my trial has expired' (it wasn't a trial, it was a full registered version). Tech support, three days after contacting them, suggested reinstalling the software. Had no effect.
- Summary
- Don't bother.
Not worth it - do not buy this product
mac2windows- Pros
- Basic mounting and read/write of HFS+ drives works most of the time
- Cons
- - Causes explorer crashes when opening file context menu (right-click) on certain copied files - Corrupted most of my photo/video library when copying from HFS+ to NTFS - Software activation requires you to register with Paragon (even if you paid!)
- Summary
- I bought this product to migrate my data from a Mac to a Windows 10 PC. This product was not able to properly copy my photo library to Windows. It corrupted 100's of JPEGs during the copy. I ended up transferring these pictures properly over the network so there was nothing wrong with the original files. This software also caused my Windows 10 file explorer to crash every time I right clicked on many of the other files that were copied from the HFS+ drive. After uninstalling the software, the crashes stopped. And finally, you can't activate this software without registering with Paragon - they want your personal information, even if you paid for the software!!
Works Great, Transfers Files Between Mac & PC on Ext HD
cafedeville- Pros
- On my Windows 8 PC, it Reads/Writes to my "Mac OS Extended" formatted external hard drive. Mounts the external drive as if it were any other external device without having to open any additional software.
- Cons
- I can't comment on what the other reviewers were trying to achieve with this software with partitioned HD's, but I have not experienced any file corruption issues personally - and I very frequently go back and forth between my Mac and PC with my Mac-formatted external drive.
- Summary
- I use this to transfer video files and other assets between a Macbook Pro and a PC running Windows 8 via an external hard drive that is formatted for Mac with no problems. The free trial was plenty of time for me to decide that this was the best software for what I need to do when compared against TransMac. Happily purchased it and received the activation codes immediately.
This app will corrupt your mac installs, DATA LOSS
- Pros
- There is no pros with this. It will corrupt your files. It will allow you to view and edit files but then when you try to boot back into mac it will start to give errors and refuse to boot.
- Cons
- Will corrupt mac partitions and you will lose data.
- Summary
- You need then to boot with USB drive into Yosemite (or other), then on the top bar access the Disk Utility, choose the disk and press verify disk, and then repair. If you are lucky (like me) the first time it will say it failed, but then let you boot. Since I didnt understand it was paragon that corrupted my files, I continue to work, then when I boot windows again, it again corrupted my disks more, this time disk utility couldnt repair them, and they also disappeared from windows. Currently in the time expensive process of restoring everything from backups. Luckly I use Time Machine permanently, so, my files are stored there and also in the cloud via Dropbox. Since time machine isnt a bootable copy of the disk, I will have to re-create my partitions and reinstall everything from scratch, all because of this piece of garbage software. BEWARE!!!
Totally disagree with other posts...
jrgarrigues- Pros
- Full read/write access to HFS+ data storage from my PC (Win8).
- Cons
- Support fro HFS+ will probably be native to the next version of Windows, but we're not there yet!
- Summary
- This product is great. I was unsure, because of the other posts here on CNET Download, but I gave it a shot anyway and it performed flawlessly. I'm on a long-term travel; brought my Drobo, but it's formatted for my iMac (didn't bring a Mac...). Paragon HFS+ for Windows allowed me to gain access to all my data, and did not compromise my files (I borrowed a MacBook Air to confirm). I'm buying it right now! Thanks Paragon!
Another HD hosed
lezouave2010- Pros
- none. the product damaged my system.
- Cons
- Data loss!
- Summary
- Using Paragon HFS+ for Windows resulted in two HFS+ devices being corrupted. In Windows the volumes are still available read and write, but none of the devices' volumes are available in Mac. Disk Utility sees the devices, the volumes are grayed out, and Disk Utility cannot repair them.

- Summary

Useless with Win 7 x64 and Mac 10.7 and 10.8 disks...
damir1- Pros
- could not get it to read any mac disks that were formatted/created with Lion or Mountain Lion... Win. 7 x64 disk manager listed all the disks as RAW and wanted to format them... maybe the next version will fix this issue... this version is totally USELESS - don't bother even trying it.
- Cons
- needs an update!!!
