No, FAT32 does not support more file formats than NTFS. In fact, NTFS is a more advanced file system that supports larger file sizes, more file types, and additional features like file permissions, encryption, and journaling. FAT32 is limited to a maximum file size of 4 GB and has a maximum volume size of 8 TB, while NTFS can handle much larger files and volumes. Thus, NTFS is generally more versatile and capable than FAT32.

Why is encryption available in the NTFS file and not in the FAT32 file system?

Encryption is available in the NTFS file system but not in FAT32 primarily due to the advanced features and capabilities of NTFS. NTFS was designed with security and permissions in mind, allowing for individual file encryption through the Encrypting File System (EFS). In contrast, FAT32 is a simpler file system that lacks the structure needed to support such security features, focusing instead on broader compatibility and ease of use across different operating systems. As a result, FAT32 does not include built-in encryption capabilities.

What is an advantage of running windows 2000 on NTFS as opposed to FAT32?

FAT32 is limited to 4 GB files. Files on NTFS can be up to 2 terabytes in size. Another advantage WIndows 2000 would have with NTFS is the support of file permissions. File permissions can stop different accounts from modifying files and folders that don't belong to them. FAT32 does not support file permissions, leaving users free to view,modify, or delete each other's files.
