You want to reduce the amount of space used on one of your FAT32 drive fast, so you decide to compress a folder named Odata with user data such as Word and Excel docs. When you want to enable compression on the folders properties sheet you notice compression is not available. How can you compress the files with the least amount of administrative effort and still be able to read the files?
a. Convert the drive to NTFS using convert.exe /fs:ntfs to enable NTFS File Compression
b. Convert the drive to NTFS using fs.exe /ntfs to enable NTFS File Compression
c. Create a new Compressed Folder and drag all the files from the Odata folder to the Compressed Folder and delete the original Odata folder
d. Use NTbackup.exe to create a file backup with maximum compression and delete the original Odata folder
Answer(s): c.
the question clearly mention that the drive is FAT32, so how can you create a compress folder. I think the answer should be a instead of c.

The answer is C, just like I wrote it to be and just like our test engine says. The previous poster claims it should be A.i would also say C. probably just an oversight on the exam-maker's part, i find plenty of them in the EC2 books. in which case it helps to know your stuff.
Rather than doubting our question, you might want to do some more research if it shows you answered it incorrectly. That's how you can learn from practice questions. The answer is C.the question clearly mention that the drive is FAT32, so how can you create a compress folder. I think the answer should be a instead of c.
A compressed folder' is a feature in Windows XP (basically a ZIP file) that has nothing to do with the underlying file system and is an entirely different feature than 'NTFS file and folder compression'. Read more about the different types of compression here:

Thank you webmaster, I am not trying to say the answer is wrong. what I knew is " compression could be done only if the drive is formated as NTFS".
thank you for clarifiacation..
