File extensions in win2k

Baz_ · 2002-05-07 08:10:07

Hey I was just wondering if it was possible to force win2k to show file extensioni, as its a little too much work to do when its a really long filename and goes off the propertys window. Just a short one, ta in advance

In Windows Explorer:

View >> Folder options >> View Tab >>Advanced Settings >>... And Uncheck "hide file extensions for known file types"
