How to Create and Format exFAT Partition in Windows 10/8/7?

Geeks - To create and format an exFAT partition in Windows 10, 8, or 7, you will need to do the following:


Open the Start menu and search for "Disk Management". Select the "Create and format hard disk partitions" option from the list of results.


In the Disk Management window, right-click on the hard drive or partition that you want to format and select the "Format" option.


In the Format Partition window, select the exFAT file system from the "File system" drop-down menu, and then give the partition a name in the "Volume label" field.


Click the "OK" button to format the partition using the exFAT file system.


Note: If you are formatting a hard drive that already contains data, keep in mind that formatting the drive will erase all the data on it. Make sure to back up any important files before you proceed.


It's also worth mentioning that exFAT is a proprietary file system, so you may need to purchase a license from Microsoft in order to use it on your computer. However, most modern versions of Windows already come with exFAT support built-in, so you may not need to purchase a license.
