ShAmmY1989 984 Report post Posted June 18, 2013 The file is too large for the destination file system Most external drives are shipped with FAT32 file system, which means they can’t handle large files larger than 4 GB in size , like a virtual machine. If you try and copy a file, you’ll get an error “The file is too large for the destination file system“ Using command prompt In our example, the drive letter is H: so in the command type this: convert H: /FS:NTFS The conversion might take a while, depending on how big is your Drive. Second option: Go to My Computer right-click on the drive and choose Format. Then select NTFS in the file system drop-down. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
