Hi I was going to convert from fat32 to ntfs and I like to convert all
partitions I have to ntfs.Are the programs going to be corrupted during
that operation or will they be alright?
I found out how to do it one drive at the time as the parameters was in
the help menu but if I want to do all drives in the same time?
Thanks in advance

I have converted 4 or 5 with no problems ... but still, one of my best
practices is to first do a backup (or two :) before doing any hard
drive manipulation (including enlarging partitions, etc)

all ( how many btw ) at the same time ? sounds risky ... better do one
after the other .

backup first. What if there is a power outrage when you are converting?
 
If you have the room, do one partition at a time. Copy the files/folders to
another partition. Delete the FAT32 partition, make an NTFS
partition/format. Move all back to that partition. Critical large files
like partition images, not recommended.
