It’s acceptable for non-essential information. The main issue is the storage capacity limit.

Files must stay under 3.25GB, as I encountered this on a storage device requiring cross-platform support.

ExFAT offers more space but isn't ideal for important files or long-term storage.

ExFAT followed FAT32 but didn't gain much traction. Later, NTFS became the standard and changed things. But for backing up crucial files on flash drives, the real concern is probably beyond just the file system type. :3 Let's hold off until he responds and we can move forward. Edit: My earlier note was incorrect—NTFS came after ExFAT.

Linux commands for disk management. Use fdisk and cfdisk to handle partitions. On Windows, apply MBR via mkfs.fat with Fat32 format. In File Manager, right-click the drive and select Format.

I've tested all options and still nothing is happening. On Windows Rufus shows this message, and on Linux every time I try to fix or format the drive I get an Input/Output error. Even though I don’t want to add to e-waste, it’s now impossible to format it to EXT4. Appreciate any help you can provide.

Use Mini Tool Partition Wizard on Windows without needing the console. First, remove all partitions, then convert them to MBR and enable fat32. You can adjust settings afterward. It’s crucial to clear everything on that drive initially. GPT works reliably on thumb drives across Windows, Linux, and macOS, though results may vary.
