Check Text ( C-74343r2_chk )
Open "Computer Management".

Select "Disk Management" under "Storage".

For each local volume, if the file system does not indicate "NTFS", this is a finding.

"ReFS" (Resilient File System) is also acceptable and would not be a finding.

This does not apply to system partitions such as the Recovery and EFI System Partition.
