Hfs disk support driver pt 10

Is there a driver for HFS Disk support for Windows 7 / PT 10?

Wondering the same thing here. I suddenly found I could not read an HFS drive when I was able to before(with 9). Not sure if I tried before the update to 10.2, so I may try a restore from one of my drive images.

The HFS driver for windows was included in 10 but it was absent from 10.2. If you did a clean install from 10.2 it would be missing. Inside the installer for 10 was the HFS installer. If you have a 10 full installer around check in there.

The odd thing for me is that the feature's software(Mediafour MacDrive8) is showing in my Program Files folder(likely from the previous install of 10.1.2). I need to get my hands on another HFS drive so I can be sure it's an issue with my system and not that single drive

Be careful with the HFS+ installers in earlier versions of PT. I tried that and had to repair the external HFS drive volumes because of corruption. Others have had a similar experience - some apparently not repairable. It's in a couple of other threads. I ended up going with Paragon HFS+ (you need the most recent version). One other thing, if your running Bootcamp, it's best to disable the Apple Bootcamp HFS+ drivers if you're installing something else. Even though they're read-only, they get in the way. You can find that info on the Apple support community boards.

MacDrive seems to work here.
