Windows really hates my Linux partitions

[Oweblow]

My PC works like this:
25 GB partition for my Linux Mint OS,
a 1.2 TB partition for my Home partition and
a 460 GB partition for Windows.

I installed Ext4Fsd on my Windows partition again so I was able to let Windows access my home folders (for production reasions).
I only mounted my home partition.

A lot of the time, Windows can't keep its hands off my home partition: meaning that when I restart/shut down my PC, it's stuck doing that and I have to either hit the reset button on my PC case or hold the power button.

Sometimes, even if it does shut down normally, when I boot back into Linux: Linux takes a really long time to start up (and turning off the quiet splash parameter for GRUB, it's showing Linux's components loading slowly with a few errors relating to write cache).

And no, it isn't a skill issue because when I uninstalled Ext4Fsd, it stopped doing it.
It wasn't even doing it in the first place until I installed Ext4Fsd.

Could you help please?

(System info if you need it.)

What happens if you in Windows:

1. close all applications accessing to the Linux partitions and then shut down
2. do step 1. and else kill by Taskmanager the Ext4Fsd process before shutting down
3. if you have enough SDRAM, reduce the swapfile to 0Bytes.

It is worth to check for the existence of any leftover of Ext4Fsd before shut down.
BTW - Windows, by itself deliberately ignores the existence of non Windows partitions.

Cheers.
I guess I'll have to create a batch script to shut down everything that's accessing my Linux partitions.
I tried making one that shuts down Ext2Srv, it works when run as admin but it still has issues so...
