Hi so i know im a total newfag but i really need your guy's help. Im currently trying to transfer files from my macbook to my pc through usb.

Now i was told that exFat worked on both operating systems, but every time i format it on my mac and try to open it on my windows 10 it still tells me i need t format the disk before i can use it. So even when i do that, it just creates a small partition on the same usb allegedy of the same type, but my pc can still only see the partition that it created.

What am i doing wrong?

Wow that fucking worked thanks anon. Not that it matters but what is the difference between guid partitions and master boot records.

>>59677930
MS still can't figure out how to do GUID. GUID basically allows you to allocate more space.

Linux, macOS, FreeBDS etc all work well with GUIDs.

Apple pulls special snowflake bullshit instead of industry standards, format it to exfat on Windows, works everywhere.

Why do they Linux, FreeBSD etc don't have any issues with GUID? Only retarded Winshit does because those poo loo """programmers""" can't write quality software.

That's because Windows doesn't know how to read anything that's not Microsoft's.
Standards. We've heard of them.
