Hello,
I had requested help regarding an external hard drive that turned RAW, and I was able to recover all the data (382 GB). I would like to thank the contributors.
My last question is in the title. The folders/files I recovered are now on a 1 TB external hard drive formatted as FAT32.
To avoid hours of copying, can I convert this drive to NTFS via a command line without risking data loss?
Sincerely.

Hello.
Normally, the command convert G: /FS:NTFS then click enter. Wait for the conversion process to finish and then check at the end that your HDD has indeed switched to NTFS.
The letter G is just an example. Enter the letter assigned to your external HDD.
Open the command prompt as Administrator.
A + . . .
