open a dos prompt and give the command

convert d: /fs:ntfs

if the system cannot lock the drive, you will be prompted to convert it during next reboot.

Normally you should select yes.

Be aware that converting to ntfs will make that partition of your
drive unreadable under dos unless you have ntfs utilites to do so.
