Explanation
FAT32 is the only option with native read/write support across all major desktop operating systems - Windows, macOS, and Linux - making it the universal choice for cross-platform compatibility (e.g., USB drives). NTFS is natively read/write on Windows, but macOS only offers read support natively (write requires third-party software). ReFS is a Windows-only filesystem not supported on macOS or Linux. EM4 is not a real filesystem type.
