 FAT32 Vs NTFS

 NTFS
1. Recovers Some disk related issues.
2. Support to large disks
3. Better security
• Permission restrictions:
• We can provide read write and executable permission to files and
folders.
• Encryption:
• By Which we can provide security to data encryption.
 FAT 32
1. Any user can read your files who has access to your machine.
2. You can not create partition larger than 32 GB and can not store
file larger than 4 GB.
3. Does not have security in FAT32.

Q. What is the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit versions of
operating system?

Ans: The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way a computer's
processor (also called a CPU), handles information. The 64-bit
version of Windows handles large amounts of random access
memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system. 32 bit
system has a limit of 4GB RAM to process data where as the 64 bit
operating system has 2^64 bits of space to address and supports 16
hexabytes of RAM to process data.
