Firstly, if you could access your phone you wouldn't be able to see the texts through Windows explorer. There are apps you can use to extract these to a viewable format, however if your screen isn't working you can't open the screen lock. This may be possible but we need to know which device you have

I was using "airdroid", but I don't remember how it worked.
If your screen has gone consider buying new phone.
