no action with CONVERT

A

Andrew

I tried to convert my FAT32 to NTFS by typing the
following at the command line.
convert
volume: /fs:ntfs /v /x /cvtarea:filename /nosecurity /?

All that was returned was an explanation of each
parameter. Nothing else happened.

Anybody know what I'm missing?

Thanks

Can't you just type "convert D: /fs:ntfs "(without the
quotes of course) where D is your drive? If that still
doesn't work, try to read more about it on Windows Help
and Support(F1) or give Partition Magic a try.

From the Help and Support Center:

To convert a volume to NTFS from the command prompt
1. Open Command Prompt.
2. In the command prompt window, type
convert drive_letter: /fs:ntfs
For example, typing convert D: /fs:ntfs would format drive D: with the ntfs
format.

Notes:
To open command prompt, click Start, point to All Programs, point to
Accessories, and then click Command Prompt.
