Convert FAT32 to NTFS

Posted Jan 26, 2005 by David Risley  

With Windows XP, to change from FAT 32 to NTFS file system for more stability, security and less fragmentation, open the command prompt and type:

Convert C: /FS:NTFS

“C” being the drive you wish to convert. Make sure there is a space between the C: and the foward slash (/). Once you press enter it will ask you for confirmation and press Y. Then press Y and enter once more to reboot. After the reboot, you will have an NTFS partition with no data loss.
