Feature: Added support for formatting drives from the properties window #13173
Feature: Added support for formatting drives from the properties window #13173
Conversation
Do we really want to add this to properties? I'm not against this option, but it's worth considering how useful it'll be when it can already be accessed from the context menu. |
Honestly, I think it will be a niche feature: I don't think people format their drives frequently. I'd use this button whenever I want to check something in the properties of a drive before formatting it. If I am using the properties window, it's easier to use that button instead of going back to Files, right-clicking on the drive and then choosing formatting. |
Makes sense 👍 |
