The UI consists of a drive selector dropdown menu, allocation unit size selector, and a simple text field for typing in a Volume label. Your drive should be formatted in a few seconds!įAT32 Format for PC comes in a small package and presents to the user only a single small window where the format procedure can be initiated. It will ask you if you want to allow it to have (Admin) access to your computer. Windows will ask you if you want to run the file.
To repeat once more, the FAT32 Format desktop app is unsuitable and cannot be used on modern SSD hard drives. The largest officially tested drive clocked in at the incredible 2TB in size! It does that by focusing on 512-kbyte sectors, and therefore it can be used only on traditional spinning hard drivers.
While the original limitation of the FAT32 file system on old versions of 16bit Microsoft Windows OS is set at just 32GB or 137GB in size, GUIFormat can easily format drives of size 250GB or even larger. Now, I can't use it at all, other than the two-versions-old edition, which has serious problems with aspect-ratio management.I don't know what these guys are thinking, or WHY the pulled a perfectly good protocol - the ONLY one usable with the Zune 30 - but, there you have it.FAT32 Format GUI is a lightweight hard drive utility that can move past the limitations of the original FAT32 file system and reformat spinning hard drives no matter of their size. They have NO support - NO product forum on their website, and polite email to both of the addresses they provide is immeditately and completely IGNORED.I feel like a bigger fool for having so enthusiastically recommended this program to so many people. Well, it installed to the new path - but, it went and DELETED the 1.85 path.Nice work, guys.I'm at my wits end. I installed 2.0 to a new path, so that I'd still have 1.85, and thus, still be able to use my Zune 30.
Dang, my post submitted while I was still typing! I can't see any way to edit or delete it, if someone can get rid of the scrap, please do, thanks!Anyway, they came out with a NEW update - version 2.0 - like a fool, I spent an hour or so downloading it and installed it and good grief, not only did they NOT restore the WMV1 encoding they REMOVED with the last update, but they ADDED a nifty misfeature - constant "COM Surrogate has stopped working" errors while running unrelated apps, copying files, etc.Yes, they BROKE my OPERATING SYSTEM!I tracked it down to a problem with the FFMpeg component included with this edition of Format Factory - and remedied it by REMOVING Format Factory.I originally TRIED to play it safe, just in case.
