Looks like you should completely reformat the 64GB stick before using it for your video files, but exactly how best to do that must await the Disk Management screenshot. A Disk Management screenshot would confirm that. At 100MB it's small enough to be a second partition on the USB stick, possibly a boot partition made by WinToUSB as part of your attempt to make a bootable Windows usb. A screenshot of Disk Management would help identify it. There's not enough information in your screenshot to say what 'USB Drive (H:) is. Don't worry about the slight difference in size, that's just because Windows counts a GB as 1024MB, while the usb manufacturers call 1000MB a GB (because it makes their drive sound larger ).

The problem for Windows owners is that it won’t give FAT32 as a formatting option if the drive capacity is greater than 32GB. Formatting a hard drive to FAT32 with Windows So, a drive formatted with FAT32 will work with pretty much any operating system, hence its advantage for portable, external drives. Although, by default, both Mac and Windows uses alternative (and better) formats, the advantage of FAT32 is that it’s supported by both operating systems and Linux, for good measure. Unlike FAT16, FAT32 allows for much larger drives and individual files. What is FAT32 and how do you convert a disk into the format? What is FAT32?įAT32 is a 32-bit file system, originally introduced with Windows 2000. But, in Windows, it’s sometimes not an option you’re given.
