How to Rename File Extensions

Why Rename File Extensions?

It’s not unusual to be instructed to rename a file’s extension from time to time. For example, if you receive a PowerPoint slideshow (PPS file) and want to be able to edit it, changing the file extension from PPS to PPT will change how the file is handled by Microsoft PowerPoint. As a PPS file, the file will launch as a slideshow when clicked; as a PPT file, the file will open as an editable PowerPoint file in PowerPoint when clicked. Sometimes, a computer user will be instructed to change a file extension from one extension to another as a way to distinguish two similarly named files when updating software or troubleshooting a problem. For example, if you suspect a file is corrupt, you might change the suspect file to filename.bad before copying a replacement file into the directory.

 

How to View the File Extension

Before you can rename a file extension, you must first be able to see it. Depending on how your computer is set up, you may or may not see an extension after a file name. If you do not see a suffix attached to the file name, then you’ll need to change a setting in your computer’s Folder Options section.

 

Folder Options is located in the Windows Control Panel and is also accessible from Windows Explorer. The easiest way to access Folder Options is to go to Control Panel > Folder Options. If you have Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can also access Folder Options by going to Start and entering “Folder Options” into the Search bar. If you currently have Windows Explorer open, click on the Organize menu followed by Folder and Search Options.

 

Once Folder Options has been launched, click the View tab. Now, scroll through the list until you find “Hide extensions for known file types” and make sure that the checkmark is removed from the box.

 

How to Rename File Extensions

Now that you can see extensions for your computer’s files, you can rename them when instructed to do so. Do this by clicking the Start button and choosing Explore. This launches Windows Explorer where you’ll then locate the file in question. Right-click the file and choose Rename from the menu that pops up and then change the extension.

 

Don’t just randomly rename file extensions as doing so could cause the file to become unusable. When renaming an extension, jot down the original file name and extension as well as the file’s path so that you can change it back should you need to. For example, if you later discover that filename.bad wasn’t bad after all and want to change it back to its original form, you’ll need to know what the original file extension was as well as where the file is located. Having notes allows you to quickly find the file and change it back to its original file extension.

Dragon age origins ideal warrior?

I started a new file on Dragon age origins for the xbox 360 and am taking the path of warrior. I know that dwarf is the best race for this class but what about weapon style? should i go dual weapons or single handed sword and shield or two handed weapons? And any other tips you might have

It depends on what you're going to use your warrior as: a tank or a damage dealer. If your character will be in front with your party members dealing damage, then go for the sword and shield style; if you have Alistair (preferably; other party members could be developed to fit in the role as well, although they wouldn't be optimal IMO) in your party to act as tank, then go for dual weapons. Personally, I like two-handed weapons, but dual wielding has - on average - better damage output.

How to Use Data Recovery Program to Recover Lost Files

No one likes losing important files whatever from PC or external devices. But file loss situations happen all the time in ways of accidentally deleting, formatting or virus attack etc. However, that does not necessarily mean you have to lose those files permanently. That's the reason why we need a data recovery program. As to data recovery programs to recover lost files, I can't see any reasons why Wondershare Data Recovery will not be a nice one. Here are a couple of reasons that may attract you to choose this nice data recovery program to recover your lost files.

 

1. Scanning process less time intensive

When you are using Windows and accidentally emptied the recycle bin, used Shift+Delete to get rid of files you don't want. But later found some of the files extremely important and urgent to you. You know it is definitely possible to recover those files back with data recovery programs. But the lost files are so urgent to you and you are surely not willing to wait several hours before they are back to your hand. So you have the right option if you choose Wondershare Data Recovery to recover your lost files.

 

This program is equipped with four critical functions. In your case the "Deleted Recovery" option will come to aid. This function supports folder scanning which will save you huge amount of time. You can specify a sub-folder where your lost files originally located and then start to scan the folder instead of the whole disk to search your lost files. Once your lost files are found it's quite easy to recover. Usually the whole process will only cost you a few minutes even seconds. This is absolutely the unique feature of Wondershare data Recovery which few data recovery programs are equipped with. As far as I have experienced, some similar programs will even cost you a few hours before you can get all your lost files back.

 

2. Comprehensive recovery capabilities

Wondershare Data Recovery is a comprehensive data recovery program with four main features: deleted recovery, format recovery, raw recovery and partition recovery. Deleted Recovery can recover deleted files from PC hard disk and external devices like flash drive, external hard drive. Format Recovery can recover lost files from formatted devices such as hard drives, USB, digital camera, memory card, etc. Moreover the option can auto detect the file system of the drive or card like FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS then get back formatted files as many a times you may have changed your file system. With deep scan, Raw Recovery will help you effectively recover lost files from seriously damaged system or virus attack that cannot be recovered even found by other recovery programs.

 

3. Easy to use and operate

With four main features listed on the interface and considerate user guide instructions followed, even non professionals can recover their lost files with this data recovery program at great ease.
