If you need to know which version of NTFS you are using you can do that with the fsutil.exe and the following command.

In my case I am testing my C:\ drive:

fsutil fsinfo ntfsinfo c:

fsutil

    Is it possible to update the NTFS version. I am on Vista 64 bit and trying to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit. I ran the upgrade tool and it tells me that there should be no issues. But when I try running the upgrade I get a message

    Windows cannot be upgraded because the hard disk partition is formatted with an unsupported version of the NTFS file system

    fsutil fsinfo ntfsinfo C:
    Error: Access is denied.

    Why the access is denied?
