| Can I access the macOS volume from Windows on a dual-boot Mac? |
| Yes, ApfsAware allows you to access the macOS volume from within Windows installed using Boot Camp. However, please
note that this feature is not supported on Macs with the T2 Security Chip due to hardware encryption of the macOS system volume. We recommend testing

| Does ApfsAware support write-access to APFS volumes? |
| No, ApfsAware does not support write-access to APFS volumes. This limitation is in place to avoid potential data corruption,
as the APFS file system is not well-documented by Apple. To ensure the integrity of your data, we currently only provide read-only
access to APFS volumes. We are committed to prioritizing data safety and are continuously exploring possibilities for future
write-access support, while maintaining the utmost caution. |
