O.P. Convert External HDD from FAT32 to NTFS
I want to convert my external HDD from FAT32 to NTFS, and after a small search i found that it can easily be done by inputting the following into cmd:

J:> convert j: /fs:ntfs

Once i do this, i get the following:

And so i scheduled a task to run when the computer next restarted.

I restarted the pc and the task ran, but gave me the following error:

The file system of J: cannot be determined.

and it quit and the computer booted up as normal.

Anyone have any solutions as how i can convert my hdd to ntfs without the problems?
