file extensions

[ShadowBlade]

do you have your file extensions visible?

 

[Aves]

Yep.

 

[DannyBoy]

Yes, yes I do.

 

[aeroguy]

The only reason not to is if you have someone in the house who might screw stuff up.

How does having them invisible prevent people from screwing stuff up?

 

[Epic Fail]

you can't change it if it is invisible

 

[ShadowBlade]

if you change, for example, a .dll to a .jpg

 

[middlehead]

Visible, and when I work on other people's machines I change it to visible while I'm there.

I leave them hidden usually since it's a pain when renaming files, which i do a lot of.

I do turn them on periodically though.
