MicroFormat

A simple Windows tool that can format USB or physical volumes to either NTFS or FAT32. It supports custom Volume names and quick formatting. Done out of boredom and curiosity for practicing purposes.

Sanity Checks

There are sanity checks in the program.

  • The program will refuse to format the Windows partition. Because the Windows partition is not always C, the check is not hard-coded. Rather, I perform a comparison between the currently selected volume to format and the known System volume. If they match, I trip a flag.
  • Volume Label sanity checks are also in place. These are necessary because NTFS volumes can hold a maximum of 32 characters with no tabs, and FAT32 volumes a maximum of 11 characters with no tabs and no * ? . , ; : / \ | + = < > [ ].
  • There are checks in place to prevent accidental formatting (You get asked whether you really want to format the volume).
