Format large Micro SD cards so Android and Windows can read them.
-
If you buy a Micro SD card, it will almost certainly arrive formatted exFAT - which standard Android cannot read (some variant phones can, but if you want to rely on your next phone also supporting it given that changing the format is a data-destructive process that is your decision). But Android can read FAT32 - but Windows will only format devices up to 32GB as FAT32. And if you have a dual boot machine, it's really nice to have a card that both OSes can read... This works in Windows 10: Ridgecrop Consultants Ltd[^] - it's not new, it's not pretty, but it's free, fast, and it works. I used it today to format a new 128GB Micro SDXC for my dual boot Win10/Android tablet to FAT32 and both OSes read and write it fine. Means I can keep one book collection, one music collection, one set of documents and share them with both OSes.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
