It depends on what you are referring to - the file system for the partition/volume that the operating system sits on, or the partition/volume that non-system data sits on.
For operating systems, there are usually certain restraints on which types of file systems you can use. Generally Windows versions after XP will work only with NTFS. The main reason is that it's a journaled filesystem (it keeps records of what was done on the disk to help it recover in the case of a crash), and it supports a larger filesize per file (as opposed to 4GB file limits on a FAT32 volume), as well as supports ACLs (for resource access permissions), filesystem-level compression (LZNT1) and encryption (EFS), hard links, and more.
Generally you cannot change the filesystem unless if you format it (which will wipe the filesystem tables only, but does not delete the data [although it will appear to have been lost, but is still recoverable via data recovery])
