Convert FAT to NTFS File System using Command Prompt

NTFS is an improvement over FAT32 as it provides many new features like encryption, compression and many more. If you want to quickly convert FAT to NTFS without losing data then here I’m providing simple steps that will be executed in command prompt.

How to Convert MBR to GPT partition in Command Prompt

GPT (GUID partition table) is a replacement of MBR (Master boot record). There are many advantages to using GPT since it allows you to create more than four primary partition and it supports disk larger than 2TB. In this blog, I will elaborate the process that convert MBR to GPT in command prompt.

Steps to Convert GPT to MBR disk using Command Prompt

GPT (GUID Partition table) and MBR (Master Boot Record) are two types of layout that are used to create partition or volume on a hard disk. MBR is based on BIOS whereas GPT is based on (EFI) Extensible Firmware Interface. In this blog, I will provide you the simplest way to convert GPT to MBR using command prompt.

MBR partition or GPT partition: Which one is better?

MBR or GPT both are used to format the hard disk in a way so that PC knows where all partitions are located. PCs get the information from the device’s Master Boot Record (MBR) but in now days a new technology has taken the place of MBR i.e. GUID Partition Table (GPT). We are going to discuss about which one is better MBR or GPT.

Resilient File System (ReFS)- A New Generation File System

The File System in a computer is to store the data in such a way so that they can be easily stored and found. Here we are going to have a look at Resilient file system (ReFS) - the next generations file system and determines its features.

Evolution of Windows Server Operating system in 20 years

Windows Server is a combination of server based operating systems released by Microsoft Corporation. The very first version of server edition was introduced with Windows NT 3.1 and followed by Windows NT 3.5, Windows NT 4.0 server, Windows 2000 server and more versions. Afterwards Win server came with lots of upgraded features which we are going to discuss here, about different versions of windows server operating system and their features.

Simple Steps to Run Check Disk utility in GUI mode

Windows users need to run Check Disk tool every so often in order to check if hard disk is working correctly. CHKDSK is basically an in-built utility to check or repair our hard drive, bad sectors or any error if there in our volumes. It is a system tool in DOS, OS/2 and Windows operating system. When Check Disk is scheduled to run at reboot, it is called Autochk. It works with both FAT and NTFS file systems of WINDOWS OS. This post will explain the simplest way to run Check Disk in Graphical User Interface.

5 Phases of Check Disk utility- The internal working

CHKDSK is a command in the Windows command line to run a program, or utility, known as Check Disk. The Check Disk program is there to make sure that the computer’s files and file system are in order. It checks the file system and metadata of a volume for logical and physical errors then displays the correction of errors. In this article we discuss about 5 phases which are performed by CHKDSK during it verifies the file for errors.

CHKDSK- A Command Line tool of Windows to Fix Disk Errors

When users have trouble accessing their hard drive then CHKDSK or Check disk utility is always recommended. Besides, every computer user must run this tool periodically so that hard drive can work smoothly. The Check Disk or CHKDSK utility is used to scan hard drive for errors in Windows operating system. Check disk program is there to make sure that the computer’s file system and file systems are working properly. We are going to discuss how to run CHKDSK in Command prompt using various CHKDSK switches by scanning the disk and fix the errors.

Storage Devices- An Essential Part of Computer System

Each and every file of a computer system is stored in storage media. If we talk about operating system, it itself gets stored in storage device i.e. in a hard disk. Data storage devices are the devices which can store or record the data/information either temporary or permanent. Storage Devices are one of the most essential component for computer. A standard computer has its own multiple storage devices like RAM, ROM, hard disks, Pen drives etc. We are going to discuss about several storage devices used by Windows Operating System.

NTFS Introduction - A File System with added Functionalities

Every computer user knows storage devices need to be formatted with the file system before being used for storing data. Now what is file system? It is a systematic way to organize data and information on a hard disk. Every operating system has its own file system, example, Microsoft introduced FAT and NTFS for its Windows operating system. In this blog, I will elaborate NTFS, its different versions, and why NTFS is far better than its precursor FAT.

FAT File System- Overview, Versions and their Features

File system is the most vital part for every operating system to save the data on drives in a proper way so that if user search for a file then he can access that file immediately. Besides, it controls how data is stored and retrieved. Windows operating system has mainly two file system FAT and NTFS. The very first file system introduced by Microsoft was FAT (File allocation table) afterwards its upgraded versions FAT16, FAT32 came with enhanced features. We are discussing here about the FAT file system, its working, and versions of FAT and their limitations. 

Journey of Windows Operating System from the Beginning

Windows Operating System Introduction:

First of all we have to know about Operating system, it is the most important software which runs on a computer. It manages the computer’s memory, processes and all of its software and hardware. Microsoft’s windows Operating system is the widely used operating system in the world. Windows operating system is Graphical User Interface (GUI) based Software which makes it easy to use and understand. Microsoft launches time to time its new versions with great upgrades like the latest windows operating system Windows 10, we will discus it further more.
