I suggest that you move the contents of your Micro SD to a 16GB SD Card if you plan to purchase more retail downloads in the future. As for your computer asking to format it, try to navigate to 'My Computer' in the Start Menu (if you are using Microsoft Windows) or located the Micro SD with a file manager. Any objections Lady?

If your only worry is losing MK7 then don't worry. You can always re-download it off the e-shop. Of course if you don't want to update cos of *ahem* personal reasons then try what codename suggested.

In future DO NOT let your PC/MAC format any SD card instead use this app:

Totally legit and from this site downloads section. I use this myself. Think of it as PC format = abysmal cowboy job whereas Panasonic format = professional job.
