As explained above, the SHARE partition is formatted to ext4 by default. Therefore, it is not accessible on Windows (macOS for you). However, if neither network transfer nor a Linux computer is available to you, there are options to access the SD card from Windows anyway.

It is possible to reformat the SHARE partition to exFAT, to make the partition accessible on Windows. To format the partition to exFAT anyway, open the KNULLI main menu by pressing Start and choose Format a disk in the Frontent developer options section of the System settings. You will be able to choose whether you want your partition formatted to ext4 or exFAT.

Hope that solves your issue.
