File too large for destination file system Elements 14

Question

I am using Premiere Elements 14.0. I created a movie (MPG) and saved it to my hard drive. It is 11GB in size and runs well. I copied it and tried to paste it on a 32GB flash drive (USB3.0) and received the error message that the file is too large for the destination file system. I do not understand how/why this is happening. I want the movie on the flash drive so it can run on my electronic picture frame. Any help would be appreciated. I have no problems pasting it on my 800 GB external drive (550 GB free). The flash drive checks out OK and allows me to paste pictures on it but I only tried a 2GB paste.

Thanks in advance for assistance.

Individual files on a FAT32 drive can’t be over 4 GB in size—that’s the maximum. You can reformat the "flash drive" to hold larger files.
