One of my user came to me and told me that he was unable to transfer a file (big  size file) to his external drive. He even bought a new one just for that - unfortunately, still failed. The error was : The file <File Name> is too large for the destination file system. as always, mark the key point there : file system. Issues : User was not able to copy large file to external drive due to above error. Troubleshooting   Right click at Computer > Manage  Computer Management console appeared. Go to Storage > Disk Management    At the right side, you will see more or less this screen. Note the Free Space for the external drive was so large, so logically there should not be any issue to copy any files. At the same time, please also note at the File System type (FAT32) If we look at the disk, the format also listed as FAT32 Resolution :   Copy all files inside the external storage to another location, as a backup.
