sprigolt Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hi All, very new to forum - so apologies if this has all been said and done before. But the problem is - When I download a file if it is contained in a folder its no problem, but as soon as the file is on it's own when its completed download it looses it's file extension. I've tried to add the file extension but its all a bit beyond me. I am using the latest version of BitComet on a windows 8 system. I did read a theory about windows 8 hiding file extensions as a default setting, but found nothing concrete saying "yes this is the cause and this is how you fix it" please help 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 A screenshot of the file in it's folder might shed some light on this but it very well could be that you have windows set to hide file extensions of known file types. This setting can be changed in "folder options" and has been the default windows setting since windows XP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
