• Can I format Vista to FAT32 If yes how

  Can I format Vista to FAT32 If yes how

  Say that your drive shows up as G:. Open a command prompt - start / all programs / accessories (right click), and then click Run as a qualification and enter the command:

  G: FAT32 format C:\

  Or change the drive letter to match what you have.

  Here's a Miccrosoft article with a more detailed explanation: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Convert-a-hard-disk-or-partition-to-FAT32-format which can be more useful if the above does not work as I think it should.

  It will be useful,

  Good luck!

  P.S. If you're talking about formatting the drive in FAT32 Vista system, do not.  Vista works better in NtFS and there is no reason to format in FAT32 (if it was still possible without a re-installation, repartitionaing and the reorganization of each partition of sepapate).

• do I have to format my USB fat32 or exfat?

  Hello

  do I have to format my USB fat32 or exfat?

  Thank you

  Johan

  Well, exFAT is native to Windows and Mac OS X and some Linux flavors were added; others may be added. Consumer electronic devices such as DVRs or Smart TVs may not be able to read NTFS, but they will likely read exFAT.

• Is it safe to convert NTFS to FAT32 on drive external HARD by third-party tools?

  Hello, I found two freeware that do the job (Aomei NTFStoFAT32 & Macrorit NTFS to FAT32) so far.

  But I'm not sure of them. Is it safe? Someone has he done this before? Thank you.

  The tools are very well, but the procedure may not always quite go as planned. Before making any major changes, you should always backup everything on the drive.

  Why you want to convert to FAT32? Windows works best on a NTFS format... :-)

• Windows 7 backup skipped image system because one of the critical-volumes backup cannot be included for backup. Make sure the volume is online and is formatted NTFS. (0 x 81000032)

  After using the backup of Windows 7, I get the following error message:

  Backup Windows jumped backup system image because one of the critical volumes cannot be included for backup. Make sure the volume is online and is formatted NTFS. (0 x 81000032)

  The backup is set to include an image of disk system: RECOVERY, DRIVE (d), OS (c :))

  "RECOVERY, DRIVE (d :))" in car is a partition of 2 GB of the hard drive internal, such as configured by Dell, and it is formatted in FAT32.  I tried to reformat the NTFS volume, but were unsuccessful.  I also looked at a certain way to omit this volume, but have still been in vain.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you.

  Do not assign a drive letter to the partition recovery/player. Open "Disk Management" and decommissioning (without drive letter) and backup and restore performance.

• SDHC cards can be formatted NTFS?

  I would like the "NTFS" format so that I can save copies of my regular Outlook Backup files on SDHC cards!  I use Windows 7 on both of my computers.

  When I try to copy the Outlook Backup for SDHC cards I have, I get a message on the file is too big, although the display of properties seems to show that there is enough space!

  The cards I have are shown are formatted as "FAT."  I guess that the problem has something to with the "block size" of the file linked to the "block size" used in the 'FAT' format!  If this ISN ' T my problem, WHAT is?

  If I can format/reformat a SDHC card to NTFS to solve my problem, please give me instructions step by step.  If there is another solution, I would certainly receive!  On my e-mail address please reply!

  Thank you

• How to convert NTFS to FAT32?

  I had the external hard drive. I convert it to NTFS. coz fat32 imposes a 4 GB file size limit. but I need to convert to fat32. How can I convert it.plz. Help. It's important Blazer.

  You can't do that with the built-in tools of Windows XP, you will need to use a third-party tool such as Partition Magic or Paragon Partition Manager for this.  Do a search on the net for other partitions similar management software.

• Formatted NTFS disks flash freeze computer during the transfer of the (large) files

  Let's first, I tried KB976972 and does not work for me, it actually returns to "the update is not applicable to your computer" (probably because I don't have an NVIDIA USB chipset).
  Also I don't know of any computer in the past, I a tailor-made with i7 box 3770 with 16g of RAM, I won't go into detail here because I had this problem with previous Office (also an i7 but first gen) so that pretty much excludes material. The OS of choice is Windows 7 64 bit.

  The problem occurs when I try to copy files on flash memory drives formatted in NTFS (or readers of thumb if you want) (large). Tested readers are all Verbatim with writing speeds on 10megs per second with a capacity of 8 to 32g. The copy process lance "strong" with the window showing whimsical speeds copies anywhere between 500 to .9g per second and abnormally fast progress bar fills. Who finally stops before the end, after what looks like no more than 10 seconds or more, the time when the computer crashes somehow. The core of the operating system seems to be working, I can switch apps, ctrl-alt-del (Nothing kills the CPU or the whole system right now BTW), all the work of gadgets Google desktop (monitors refresh as expected), but real-world applications are frozen and in fact, if I try to tinker with them they will eventually become "inadmissible." After some time (a full, if not minute more) resumes the copy process, and the whole system will become responsive again. However, if the file is large enough this episode of gel repeat several times until it is completed.
  While readers LED flash Flash normally and consistently throughout. There are no errors with the transferred files.

  The question is NOT triggered by the large transfers with several smaller files. For example if I copy a whole folder 5g with images, the process will be less than the normal surface of 100%, the reported speed will be credible (about 7 m/s), the computer cling not or anything like that. However, if I try a single file of 5g hang episode repeat 2 or 3 times.

  As I mentioned previously the material can't be at fault, the disks themselves work perfectly and normally if formatted FAT32 or exFAT so there may be a problem with them either. The problem is only manifest with structure of NTFS files AND large files.

  Any ideas will be appreciated. THX

  Hello

  I understand that you can not transfer large files via USB key.

  1. is the question confined to a particular file?
  2 have you tried with another USB drive?

  3. do you get an error message when you try to transfer?
  4 have you connected the USB even to another computer and check if you're able to transfer large files?

  I would suggest trying the following steps and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  
  Try to convert the NTFS file system and check if you are able to transfer files.

  1. click on start
  2. type cmd in the start search box
  3. right click on cmd in the menu and choose Run as administrator.
  4. in the command line type convert /FS: NTFS

  Method 2:
  

  Uninstall all USB entries in Device Manager.
  
  1. click on START
  2. right click "Computer" and select "Properties".
  3. on the left side, click on Device Manager.
  4. expand the 'USB Bus controllers' category
  5. right click and uninstall all THE references listed
  6. restart your computer and check if it works.

• Cannot start after the formatted NTFS partition

  Option to boot OS X suddenly absent after that I formatted the partition NTFS (bootcamp) of Windows installation.

  

  I read many previous question in many Web site and

  I tried to fix it in disk utility, but it cannot go up more.

  user mode single launch I tried, but it does not start.

  already reset NVRAM and SMC.

  Is there not any solution to start again or access my files in the partition mac to back up?

  Thank you.

  Somehow, you managed to format your OS X with making it unusable NTFS volume. I recommend you do the following:

  Clean Install of El Capitan

  Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime, press Command + Option + R until a globe appears.

  The Utility Menu appears in 5 to 20 minutes. Be patient.

  Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.

  When loading disk utility, select the drive (generally, the entry Out-bumpy) in the list aside.

  Click the Partition tab in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.

  Set the GUID partition scheme.

  Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).

  Click on the apply button, then click the fact when it is active.

  Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.

  Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  This should install it the version of Mac OS X that has been previously installed when the computer was new.

• SanDisk Cruzer, to use the entire disk, but cannot get rid of the unallocated space or format NTFS

  Hello, I just bought this drive with 32 GB. (XP pro, 32-bit ie8 svc pk 3)

  I used CCleaner to clean the disc.

  CompMgmnt now displays 29,82 FAT32 healthy, with 11 mb unallocated.

  When I right click on the unallocated space, properties and help is my only options, no deletion.

  I also want to format it in NTFS, but this isn't one option for others 29,82 inches. I have to format it in ntfs?

  http://www.thinktechno.com/2008/04/22/how-to-format-a-USB-drive-with-NTFS-file-system/   I was able to format to NTFS through this Web site. However, I still want to remove the removable disk unallocated space.

  11 mb is a lot? Diskmanagement lists volume 99% free.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Use the HP format tool (Windows 7/Vista, right-click on the icon and select run as administrator). This will allow you to format to NTFS.

  I wouldn't worry about 11 MB, there is almost nothing (~0.01 GB). He might need it for the system or something.

• Losing files encryption ranging from NTFS to FAT32 or FAT16?

  I was wondering if encrypted files created on NTFS formatted drives lose encryption if moved to FAT32 or FAT16 formatted drives?

  In most cases, Yes, the file will lose the encryption.  Quoting:

  Problems inadvertently by improper use

  Several problems can cause problems when using EFS. First of all, when it is not being used, sensitive files can be unintentionally exposed. In many cases, this is due to incorrect or weak security policies and a failure to understand the EFS. The problem is made all the worse because users think their data are secure and can therefore do not follow usual precautionary methods. This can occur in several scenarios:

  • If, for example, users copy files encrypted to FAT volumes, the files will be decrypted and therefore is more protected. Because the user has the right to decrypt the files that they encrypted, the file is decrypted and stored in clear text on the FAT volume. Windows 2000 gives no warning when this happens, but Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 offer a caveat.

• Conversion of 232 GB external hard drive from NTFS to FAT32.

  I already tried a lot of free programs and other people say those free whenever I go to apply the changes, it says you need to purchase the program before any changes can be made. I tried cmd prompt, but he said that the volume was great to convert to FAT32. I tried to use windows help and they give me the steps but when I select the options it gives only me exFAT and NTFS. That's it for external use with my PS3 HD and he only read FAT32. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.
