Hello,
In order to format files larger than 4GB to be readable by Windows and Mac,
I want to format my USB drive to ExFAT.
If I use the Mac, I can do it.
If I use Windows 8.1, it offers me FAT, NTFS, ExFAT, and when I choose ExFAT from the dropdown menu, it immediately suggests NTFS and there's no way to confirm ExFAT!
Do you have a solution? I've tried several different drives and nothing works!
However, my Windows PC reads this ExFAT file system (formatted by Mac) very well.
Thank you for your help.

Hello friend,
the utility Rufus does it very well. (official site: https://rufus.akeo.ie/ )
Here's the download link:
