YOUR DOING IT WRONG! Smile

Go to "Folder Options" or whatever its named in your country in the Controlpanel of Windows
(There is a shortcut to Folder options in the Tools menu in each window too)

Go to the second tab in that window and disable "hide file extensions for known filetypes" or whatever its called.

(Im using Windows XP, this is the same in Windows 95/98/ME/Vista and is enabled by default)
