    What is FAT (File Allocation Table)?

    FAT (File Allocation Table) is a file system format used to organize data on storage devices like hard drives, USB drives, and memory cards. It is one of the oldest and most widely used file systems, originally designed by Microsoft for floppy disks.

    FAT is known for its simplicity and compatibility across a wide range of devices, but it lacks some of the advanced features of modern file systems like NTFS or ext4. Variants like FAT16, FAT32, and exFAT are commonly used in different devices and operating systems.

    How to open FAT?

    FAT file systems can be read and written to by most operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. Devices such as cameras, USB drives, and other portable storage typically use FAT-formatted drives for easy compatibility.

    On Windows, FAT file systems are recognized automatically and can be accessed like any other drive. On macOS and Linux, they can be mounted directly without requiring additional software.

    FAT is a Developed by: Microsoft
