How are you verifying that? Windows Explorer isn't going to help, but
you can use a few other methods. I use Treesize Free to explore in
there, but Linux should also work. Be careful, though, some folks report
that their PC will no longer boot after mucking around in there.


There is no danger in "reading" a file system no matter
what method or OS you are using. The mucking around
you mentioned would only occur if the user done something
that caused the file system to be written to.
