Good evening everyone,
I want to convert a partition on my external hard drive in order to save a system image in NTFS.
My external drive is a Verbatim HD in FAT 32.
I go into the command prompt and type convert F:/fs:ntfs
Then the command prompt asks me to enter a volume name that I want to convert (I want to convert 50 GB) but the problem is that no matter if I enter 50GB, 50 GB, etc., I always get the same message:

"An incorrect volume name has been entered for this drive"

Thank you in advance

    re
    try again with this software ---> EaseUS Partition Master
    take the free version, of course
    don't hesitate if you have any questions

      in English but very easy to use
      uncheck the toolbar if there is one (I don't remember too well)
      anyway, I've been using it for a long time and I'm very satisfied :)

      I just have a small issue:
      I partitioned a part of my hard drive, but now I want to delete the partition (and merge that part back to the base of my hard drive)

      Here's a screenshot if that seems more understandable
      By the way, I partitioned the 50 GB for NTFS, so that's all good on that front.

      In partition recovery maybe?
      I will try, I hope not to mess things up but since it indicates to me that after recovery my partition will be back to FAT 32, it reassures me.

      Good evening,
      I'm actually going to keep a 30 GB partition that I have along with my 100 GB that is still free (it's not a problem)
      Otherwise, I created a system image on a partition in NTFS (250 GB for the system image) and it’s perfect
      Thank you, I will mark this as resolved :)
