Should I Format A USB Boot Drive to the NTFS or FAT32 Format？Help!

If I want to turn my USB drive into a Windows 10 bootable drive, should I format it as NTFS or FAT32? How should I make the bootable USB formatted?

If you want to turn your USB into a bootable disk, the best choice is to set your USB to FAT32 format, which has good compatibility between different operating systems and USB devices. And bootable USB also doesn't need to store large files, so FAT32 is a good choice. UEFI/BIOS will not support NTFS and exFAT formats.
