Convert Existing Disk Volumes to NTFS in The Network Encyclopedia Tutorials and Documentation (IIS 6.0 Deployment Guide)

Convert Existing Disk Volumes to NTFS

The command-line tool Convert.exe converts FAT and FAT32 volumes to the NTFS file system, leaving existing files and folder intact. Volumes converted to the NTFS file system cannot be converted back to FAT or FAT32.
