Explanation
Formatting (applying a file system like NTFS or FAT32) to a partition can be done two ways: the 'format' command-line utility (B) allows formatting from the command prompt or during OS installation, and Disk Management MMC (C) is the GUI tool in Windows (accessible via diskmgmt.msc) that lets you right-click a partition and format it. Device Manager MMC (A) manages hardware drivers, not storage formatting. Windows Explorer (D) can format removable drives but is not the standard method for hard drive partitions. FDISK (E) is an older DOS tool used to create partitions, not to apply a file system - that step still required the format command afterward.
