the subject had me thinking they might have selected the option to show extensions as part of the file name. hmmm .... time to get some help it sounds like....

I was actually thinking the same thing after I did a bit of research. Do you know how to change the settings back so that it doesn't show the file extensions?

Thanks a lot for the response!

Thanks for replying,

I actually had a free trial of AVG at the time but now I have Kaspersky and immediately ran a check. There were no viruses found.

So I'm browsing the internet and doing what I normally do on my laptop when all of a sudden I see that I can't rename folders, move files or rename anything.

Any thoughts on how to fix this problem? I'm trying to organize and this is stopping me.

Thanks in advance!
