7. Formatting the Device under Windows
Formatting is sometimes necessary for better performance or eliminating corrupted
data. In some cases, format is required when you are using the device under a
particular operating system for the first time. However, do remember that all the
data will be erased. Back up before doing it.
Windows operating systems, XP for instance, provide FAT32 as the default format
option for USB flash drive, but not NTFS. However, for large capacities, said 32GB
or above, NTFS is a more suitable option as it leaves more disk space. The following
are guidelines for FAT32 and NTFS formats.

FAT32
1. Insert the USB device to an available USB 2.0/3.0 port on a computer. The device
will appear as an icon on “My Computer”.
2. Since FAT32 is the default, just open the “My Computer” icon and right click on
the device “APACER”. Then, select “Format”.
3. Click on the drop-down arrow at “File System” and select “FAT32”.
Remember, FAT32 is recommended for USB flash drives with capacities under 32GB.
7
NTFS
Though a standard format option in Windows, NTFS is not a default for users. To
enable NTFS format for USB flash drives with capacities 32GB or above, please
follow the steps below.
1. Right-click on “My Computer” and select “Manage”.
2. Click on “Device Manager” and enter “Disk Drives” at the right column.
3. Select “USB3.0 FLASH DRIVE USB DEVICE” and double click to enter it.
Please be noted that the name “USB3.0 FLASH DRIVE USB DEVICE” is
determined by the operating system by default.

4. Once you enter the “USB3.0 FLASH DRIVE USB DEVICE”, the Properties
window will appear and you are in the “General” section. Then select “Policies” at
the working tabs on top.
5. Click on “Optimize for Performance” and “OK”. In Windows, the default is
“Optimize for Quick Removal”.
