And for a very good reason; it is virtually universally usable by any operating system. However, the "exFAT" system is becoming more prevalent due to its more versatile design. To use a camera as an example, any manufacturer that would use a file system that was not compatible with MS Windows would be driving the company into bankruptcy. There are dozens of Windows based applications that can handle images stored on various types of cameras At best, there are only a few designed for the non-Windows world, and they work like crap, if you can get one to work at all. They are all feature poor, again assuming you can get one to actually work without having an engineering degree. -- Jerry ♔ Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
