Converting exFAT Hard Drive to NTFS
Hello everyone,
I've been trying in vain for 2 days to convert my external hard drive from exFAT to NTFS. I've tried formatting (nothing works) and going through the cmd by typing "convert F: /fs:ntfs" and I get the nice response: "CONVERT is not available for EXFAT drives."
Please help me :)

Because you first need to convert your hard drive to FAT32 as it is currently in exFAT.
You need to install FAT32 Formatter 1.0 ( https://www.clubic.com/telecharger-fiche189948-fat32formatter.html ), format it to FAT32, then proceed in the same way:
-Open cmd.exe
- Type: convert x: /fs:ntfs (x being the name of your hard drive) and press enter.
There you go!
