    Win8 & 7 shared files - just curious


    I have both Windows 8 and Windows 7 installed.

    Is it normal that when I Run Windows 8, I can access 'Windows 7' partiton, but it seems there's no 'Windows 8' partitions while running Windows 7?

    Just curious...

    No, not in my case lol. Both Windows 7 and Windows 8 can see each other's partitions but with a different drive letter. Windows 8 reads my Windows 7 partition as drive D:, whilst Windows 7 reads my Windows 8 partition as drive F:

    Just check your drives individually to make sure.
