TransMac is a Windows program that can copy files to and from Macintosh disks.
Most disk types supported by TransMac include hard drives, CD-ROM, diskettes and most removable media.
Note for Vista users:
Due to Vistas extra security, even users with administrator access may find that TransMac does not show some disks (specifically fixed disks) because accessing fixed disks requires a higher privilege level. TransMac can be run with elevated privileges either temporarily by right-clicking on the program icon and selecting "Run as administrator" or always by selecting "Properties" and ticking "Run this program as an administrator" under the "Compatibility" tab.
Here are some key features of "TransMac":
