I downloaded a 4.7GB compressed file in 30 rar files. but when I try to unrar them it gives me :
" There is not enough space on the disk.
! Write error: only NTFS file system supports files larger than 4 GB "
how can I fix it?

You need to format your HDD in NTFS. So get your self a external or additional HDD and format it NTFS and extract the isothere.


If you hate it, ignore it.

Depends on how you do it :\, you should be able to convert it to NTFS without any problems, but don't blame me if it does go wrong lol.
