Windows 10: Windows 11 Can't create a Recovery disk

I think I discovered the problem. The external HD RECOVERY disk gets setup as a FAT32.It should be NTFS. If I separately format it as NTFS and do the Create Recovery program again, it reformats the disk to FAT32. This is not correct! Maybe I'm wrong. But looking up general backup programs for Windows, it states NTFS is what use.

How To: Create recovery partition.

it worked when i copied all the files of the disk to the recovery partition i created, but i had to use WinPE tab to add the entry.

Type: WIM Image (Ramdisk)
Name: Recovery
Path: Z:\Sources\boot.wim
and hit Add Entry
I tried it in VirtualBox and it worked.
At first, it would add a second "Windows 7" entry to the list, but when the installation is finished, the old one is deleted. (I formatted only C: partition)
