if you have no other place to move the file at the moment, and unless you need to access it immediately, do multipart zip, rar, or 7z. make each segment 1 or 2 or 3 GB.
pic related. you don't even have to compress it.

shit's ancient, was made in an era where 10GB was an absolute fuckload of space, so not being able to fill up nearly half the disk with a single file didn't really matter too much
But yeah, that was one of the big issues with fat32. Annoyed the hell out of me years ago because DVD images were too fucking big.
make a split archive of the file if this is just some backup thing
otherwise, you're SOL and gotta reformat (or do an in-place conversion to NTFS)
...and why didn't you use NTFS?
Juan James
you can convert it to NTFS really easily actually lol

This is why NTFS is a thing.

What if you want it to be readable by both windows and linux?
Blake Sullivan
Linux can read NTFS
Jordan Foster
linux also has a stable ntfs write implementation, only macos shits itself when trying to write to ntfs
Jayden Young
just format it ext4 on linux, then overwrite the windows partition and put another linux on it

What's wrong with ext4?
Carter Lee
I think what they're getting at is that it's a solid filesystem but lacking in features compared to btrfs. Though not all think those features or the fs in general is good. I'm using it on my work laptops / to allow snapshotting, incase something happens. On my /home I've switched over to XFS and found that it's really solid and nice, maybe even better than ext4.
