I installed a 32gb SD card in my Stylo 3 when it was new. I now have a new 64gb SD card that I want to use instead. I copied all of the files from the 32gb card to the 64gb card and installed the new card in my phone. The phone does not recognize the new card. The 32gb card was formatted with FAT32 and the new 64gb card is the newer exFAT format. How can I accomplish installing the new card and keep the data intact or is that even possible?
Thanks for any advice and help.

Thank you PapaGary for the help. It was not easy to do as the Micro SD card only had two partitions which were exFAT 32 and NTFS. I had to download "EaseUS Partition Master" free version to install the FAT 32 partition. I though my Stylo 3 phone would read the exFat 32 format but I guess it wouldn't. Now to try this all over again. (crossing my fingers)

Well as it turned out, I did a lot of steps for nothing. The Stylo 3 handles a exFAT 32 card just fine. The software that I downloaded and used did not actually change the card format as expected. Anyway, I reformatted the card back to it's original state and the phone read it just fine. Thanks for the help.
