    Pen Drive Issue


    I don't understand that when I'm going to take a RAR file in my pen drive then I noticed "The file [my file name] is too large for the destination file system" but, I'm sure that I have enough space in my pen drive.

    Could you please say something about this issue?

    Maybe the destination drive was formatted with FAT32 file system and can only take 4GB file size max. You need to format it with NTFS.

    Or with eXfat for compatibility with other systems. It will still let you write files larger of 4GB.

    You can either split the file into smaller pieces and then copy it to your external hard drive or you can convert the file system to NTFS, where there is no limit on file sizes.
