original title: How to Convert EXFAT into NTFS...?????
Hi there,
I have bought 64GB USB Memory Stick. But I am not able to format this drive into NTFS file system. I have got Windows 7 operating system. It is only allowing me to formate it into EXFAT only. Because of non NTFS file system i am not able to copy bigger than 2GB file. Even sometimes if i copy the whole folder still nothing gets copy in it. Only the folder name.
I have tried different partition softwares to formate it into NTFS but still no louck atall. Even i tried to make partition of 8GB but still no luck.
So, is there any other way that i can formate my memory stick into NTFS file system.
Please help for this problem. I am looking for the solution since last 3 months.
Regards,
Palak Patel
