Use NTFS instead of FAT32?
- boomboomsubban 3y agoBasically nothing compares to the portability of FAT based.
- bogantech 3y agoWhich doesn't matter for windows installation media
- boomboomsubban 3y agoSure, but if your default is to use FAT based something needing to use something else will cause confusion. I thought the post was saying to use NTFS for their drives normally, but I'm probably mistaken after thinking about it.
- vetinari 3y agoIt does. It has to boot in the first place. Only after windows kernel is running, it can read filesystems it supports.
- executesorder66 3y agoNo, use exFAT.
- vetinari 3y agoexFAT is not supported by UEFI. Only FAT32.
- executesorder66 3y agoThanks, that's good to know! Apologies for spreading misinformation.
