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

Unable to copy Files from external hard drive to c drive.

can we arrange a remote session and you can show me what to do ?

I copied files from my external hard drive to my c drive as the previous shop I took it to refused to take it

because they couldn't copy anything to the drive. I have since found out that some files can

be transferred and some can't.

In the meantime I will try the steps you have outlined.

thanks,

Habib.
