Congratulating #CrowdStrike for reaching its carbon neutrality targets six years early through its disruption of global air traffic today!

"We have received feedback from customers that several reboots (as many as 15 have been reported) may be required, but overall feedback is that reboots are an effective troubleshooting step at this stage," Microsoft wrote in an update.

Really? 15 times? Depending on how ancient the Windows machine in question is, that could take an eternity.

“I also had to decide how much ‘cluster slack’ would be too much, and that wound up constraining the format size of a FAT volume to 32GB,” admitted Plummer in a post on X. “That limit was also an arbitrary choice that morning, and one that has stuck with us as a permanent side effect.”
Windows has long supported reading FAT32 partitions that are up to 2TB in size, but you haven’t been able to create one in the OS without a third-party tool until now. Hopefully Microsoft decides to update the format GUI in upcoming Windows 11 builds to make it even easier for everyone to create full FAT32 partitions.
While the partition limit for FAT32 is being extended, there is still a 4GB size limit on individual files stored on a FAT32 volume. FAT32 isn’t widely used these days compared to alternatives like exFAT, but it’s still in use by many older devices that require USB drives or SD cards formatted with FAT32.
