Hello,

Is there a way to unhide known file extensions? This is the first thing that I turn off on Windows and I find it unfortunate that the 770 adopted this "usability enhancement". I have already ran into the situation where I added a known extension onto an file with an unknown extension and, now that is has been automagically hidden, I can't change it back (e.g  changed movie.mp4 to movie.mp4.avi hoping that it would show up in the video player selection and that I could try playing it). I could install the terminal and rename it there but I would rather just see the complete filename. Extensions don't scare me and don't need to be hidden.

As a side question, is there a way to have the various application *not* filter the filenames to only the ones that they think they can deal with? (as this is what leads me into banging my head against the hidden extensions wall).

Thanks,
/Mike
