    Reformatting external hard drive from FAt32 to NTFS


    I reformatted a WD passport to FAT32 to back up my ps4. Now I'd like to format is back to NTFS so I can use it as a back up for my pc.I can't see the drive when I connect it to my pc, under "This PC." So I can't right click, go to properties and reformat.I went to disk management and I can see the drive but when I right click the only options are "convert to dynamic disk, convert to MBR disk" or properties. There's no format option in properties.I tried diskpart command line, but I wasn't able to get that to work either.If this isn't the right place to put a question like this please let me

    :)
