Windows 10: How do I convert an NTFS external HDD to exFAT without formatting

Pretty self explanatory. I want to use my external HDD on more devices, like Macs, but I know OSX or Ubuntu Linux can't read or write to NTFS drives.

I just want to know if it's possible to convert it from NTFS to exFAT without formatting the thing, and if it is I want to know how.

Thanks in advance.

exFAT Format with Windows 10

I can not format my external HDD from NTFS to exFAT on windows 10. All my drivers are updated and every time I start format it fails instantly. Anybody have any suggestions or know how to fix this? I was trying to use it for my ps4 so I can back up games
and save data but I cant do that without it being in exFAT format. Please help?

Edit: I got it to work finally. I had to do it on a mac and it worked instantly.

 

Formating to exFAT

Hi Taylor,

If you want to format an external hard drive or USB flash drive in exFAT, you can follow these steps:

• Press and hold Windows key + x on your keyboard. This open the context menu.
• Select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type format g: /FS:exFAT and then Enter to begin formatting the G drive as exFAT
