35The File Is Too Large For The Destination File System Windows 11/10 FIX [Tutorial]
Windows may have gotten much better at managing space but it isn’t without the odd problem now and again. I was asked the other day to fix an issue a customer had when moving files between their hard drive and an external drive. They kept seeing ‘file too large for destination file system’ errors. Here is how I fixed it for them.

Yesterday, while copying some large files to an external hard drive, I was promptly issued this message by Windows:
The file “myfile” is too large for the destination file system.
So I wondered to myself what could possibly cause this issue. My external hard drive had tons of free space, so why would I not be able to copy this file over?
