Here 'T-Care' will help you to be able to convert FAT32 to NTFS without losing data.
How to Change 'FAT32' Being 'NTFS' Without Losing Data:
1. Open My Computer, note the name of the drive that its file system to convert.
2. Click Start.
3. Type cmd in the search box when using Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows Vista and if you use Windows XP, click Run and then type "cmd" (without quotes) then enter.
4. At the command prompt type "chkdsk h: / f" (without the quotes) where H is the letter of the drive to run the conversion, which serves to check the drive from damage (error) and fix them automatically.
5. Then type "Convert H: / FS: NTFS" (without the quotes). "H" is the letter of the drive to be converted.
6. Command Prompt will start the conversion process and after a few minutes, the CMD will say "conversion was Successful"
