Rename into .avi format?

[jackh1990]

Hi,

I accidentally deleted an .avi format video from the recycle bin and restored it with a program called Restoration Version 2.5.14

Unfortunately, when i saved it to my desktop, it is just a file, that plays in Windows media player but it isnt recognised as a video file, so i cant convert it into a .vob because DivXtoDVD doesnt recognise it.

Is there any way i can rename it or convert it back to a .avi file?

Thanks

u should really ask this question in the "microsoft" or "software" section in the forum. this is definately not hardware related.

I deliberated over the choice of forum to post in and decided on this one merely because it said 'Computer Video' below the title, and because i saw a few video and audio related questions.

Thanks anyway
