It works, but I found a rather annoying problem. Windows 10 always tries to write "System Volume Information" to floppy disk and it takes large spaces (for a 1.44M floppy, anything is huge!). How can I stop the stupid Windows 10 from doing this?

I am not absolutely sure this works with floppies, but if the system considers them as removable media same as usb drives it might work.
