Wouldn't it be better to repair any faults on the system, who knows what else may not be working / Reading correctly ?? Out of Interest, inserted a 1TB Flash drive into both a Windows and Linux PC (OS) Both read the drive the same exFAT ( which is what it is). Linux 11379 and Windows 11380 |

Well three different Mint computers report back the same which begs the question as to how they could all be misreporting. I'll try and find Gparted which isn't my favourite programme. :D |

| 1488118 | 2022-08-30 03:07:00 | Because it's a display bug in whatever file manager that Mint uses, not reporting the right text string for the filesystem type!!! gaaaaah! Stick it in a Ubuntu machine and look at it with gnome-disk-utility or Gparted. or just run fdisk and list partitions on the drive. then you'll get the real answer. |

| 1488120 | 2022-08-30 04:42:00 | Mint 21 displayed the ones I posted as they are. Then I expect B.M. has an older version of Mint, and this is some bug which has since been fixed. |

Very possible, some people don't like upgrading operating systems regardless of what the OS is. Often newer versions fix bugs (and create new ones sometimes) ;) | wainuitech (129) | ||

Often newer versions fix bugs (and create new ones sometimes) ;) Let me assure you, B.M. does have an older version of Linux Mint. Ver19.3 if that matters. ;) What’s more, seeing it works perfectly, I have no intention of fiddling with it. OK, I’m a High Priest of the adage “If it ain’t Broken don’t Fix IT.” :) Therefore, I’ll just settle for “FUSE” being something to do with Linux and the Disks File System. :thumbs: |
