Windows XP can't open the exFAT format U disk, suggesting that the unformatted solution

  

has a 16GB Kingston U disk, in order to store HD movies larger than 4GB, so formatted into an exFAT file system, but then Brought some inconvenience.

Because some of the Microsoft Chiefs’ colleagues are still using the Windows
XP system, when the exFAT format U disk is plugged into these computer
, it appears A strange phenomenon: Some Windows XP computers can recognize the USB flash drive normally, but some computers cannot be opened. The prompt "The disk is not formatted." The disk in drive * is not formatted. Want to format now? ”. Figure:

Right-click to view the U disk properties, the file system is displayed in RAW format, and the capacity is 0.

This is strange. Is it that the U disk of the Microsoft chieftain is unstable and wants to break down? However, this U disk is not used for a long time, and it is relatively new.

Thinking that on Windows 7 and Windows 8 systems, there has never been a problem with the inability to open, prompt formatting. The Microsoft chief surely the problem is not on the U disk, it should be on the Windows XP system.

Because Microsoft has supported the exFAT file system by default from the Windows Vista system, Windows XP support for the exFAT file system is implemented by updating the patch. It can be seen that the Windows XP computer that cannot open the exFAT format U disk should not have the patch installed.

After querying in the Microsoft Knowledge Base, the update patch is numbered KB955704. As shown in the figure:

Microsoft clearly stated that installing this update can add Windows XP support for the exFAT file system format.

Okay, download and install the Windows XP update (KB955704), after restarting the computer, successfully open the exFAT format U disk
