ReFS and file server resource manger Compatibility

I'am just relating my problem encountered on using REFS format on my volume formatted as NTSF for File server Resource Manager in creating Quota.

Sad to say, read this article late. I setup a Drive volume formatted as Refs for File server. and now, while I am setting up the quota in File Resource Manager, I suddenly hit an error message saying that " The selected path is not on a NTFS volume. Only NTFS volumes are supported.

I have no choice but to re-migrate the data to another storage temporarily then reformat the volume to NTFS just to become compatible with FRSM. Is there any other way or solution on converting REFS to NTFS without reformatting and no data loss? I've used REFS and now i cannot create quota using file resource manager in windows 2022.
