Convert from FAT32 to NTFS

Guest

I am trying to convert my volumes (c: and d:) from FAT32 file system to NTFS
file system.
I am using command as follows,

convert c: /fs:ntfs /v

But the following error gets returned by using the above command.

"convert: Missing an image file name [Invalid argument]"

Can anyone tell me why this is happening? Thanks in advance.

Before you convert you should read the following article by the late
Alex Nichol MVP: http://www.aumha.org/win5/a/ntfscvt.htm

There is a cluster size issue that could adversely affect performance
if it is not addressed before you do the conversion.

Good luck
