Do you have both WIN and LO open at the same time?;
if so, then close the one you're not using ... open the one you
wish to use.
[re. saving a document], when you click on 'file', there are other
save features but the main ones are 'save' vs. 'save as' - ignore the
others since these merely add the suffix for you; the same problems arise
if you click on 'save'. THEREFORE click on 'save as' then follow the
blocks - choosing the suffix you desire, choosing the folder you desire,
then clicking to save.
