The version of fdisk that ships with Windows 95 does not report the correct size of a hard disk that is larger than 64 GB. An updated fdisk is available from Microsoft to correct this issue.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/263044 |title=Fdisk Does Not Recognize Full Size of Hard Disks Larger than 64 GB |publisher=[[Microsoft]] |date=24 August 2012 |edition=4.0 |website=Support}}</ref> In addition, fdisk cannot create partitions larger than 512 GB, even though FAT32 supports partitions as big as 2 TB. This limitation applies to all versions of fdisk supplied with Windows 95 OSR 2.1, Windows 98 and Windows ME.
