Why yes, I would in fact like to write a file bigger than 4GB in 2025. Com'on flash drive manufacturers, get your shit together and format in exFAT already -_-

You're viewing a single thread.
Windows won't even let you format them in fat32 anymore! Which sucks when the device you plan to use it for TECHNICALLY supports exfat, but there's lots of community posts about how the drivers for exfat regularly corrupt the drive if it tries to read/write too much...
What? That just means it will corrupt files on fat32 too but not the whole filesystem so you didn't notice. Return that shit.
I regularly format usb drives to fat32 with windows. You just need to use diskpart.
Doesn’t that limit you to 32GB partition sizes for fat32?
Yes, it does. It's usually for OS updates/installation sticks or configuration files for stuff like switches, meeting bars, conference phones, etc... and not for data transfer.
