Go to Help > Help Index first then you will see a search box in the
upper left column. Enter file extensions in that search box. Remember
she said to search on help.

Alan,
Search Help in Legacy for file extension and you'll get a list.
There's a few missing but most are there.
Pat is wanting to Print a list. Why Microsoft haven't added that to
File Explorer is a continuing mystery.

Hello Pat,
I am fairly new here, but am a very long-time user of PCs and
have an official Microsoft qualification.
In the “CUSTOMISE” (in “Legacy”) there is a facility to edit
where your files are saved. If you then go to that folder
using “Windows Explorer” <Win + E> or via “Start” menu (etc),
you can see what files you have in that folder.
Under “View”, be sure to select “Details” otherwise the column
view will not show.
If the column “Date last saved” is not showing,
Do the following:-
<view> <group by>, then tick <choose columns> and inside that
tick the column headers you want or require. Be sure to include
“date Last Saved”. You can use the “Move Up” / “Move Down”
arrow controls in the “Choose Details” window to alter the
positioning of the columns.
Note: in the “Show/Hide” section at the top of the main Windows
Explorer window, it would be a good idea to tick “File Name
Extensions” so that you can select the right type of data file.
(Microsoft always seems to want to hide the “file types” What I
think of that can not be printed.)
At this stage I have not worked out what Legacy file type is
which and I have not found a Legacy “Help” item with that info.
