Title: My music file names (wma, mp3 etc....)
Post by: adamD on March 17, 2008, 04:22:21 PM

Before I did the system restore on my computer all my music had the type of file they are in the name. For example, when I went into my music folder a song would be call  blahblah.mp3 or .wma. Now its just the name and no file extension, how do I get it back to the way it was.

You didn't mention what Windows you're using so I will assume XP.
Open any folder.
Select Tools --> Folder Options.
Select the View tab.
Find where it says "Hide extensions for known file types" and uncheck the check box next to it.
Apply and OK.
