Converts FAT volumes to NTFS

Convert volume /FS :NTFS[/V}[/CvtArea :filename] [NoSecurity] [X]

Volume:‐ Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon), mount point, or Volume name.

/FS:NTFS Specifies that the Volume is to be converted to NTFS

/V Specifies that Convert should be run in verbose mode

/CvtArea:filename Specifies a contiguous file in the root directory to be the place holder for NTFS system files

/NoSecurity Specifies the converted files and directories security settings to be accessible by everyone

/X Forces the volume to dismount first if necessary. All opened handles to the volume would then be valid This is the coding which is DOS ( Command prompt):‐

[ > Programs > Accessories > 7th one down “ Cmd” ]

Which is necessary to convert your files

When you have clicked “ Cmd” the above is what you type after the chevron [ > ]

This may be heavy stuff to some but I can’t make it easier

F AT is the abbreviation for (File Allocation Table)

However the conversion from FAT files to NTFS is worth it you will never want to go back
