    Default File Extensions:save as

    I am running PS7 on WinXP. When I choose 'save as', wanting to, say, save a JPEG as a PSD file, PS is retaining the original extension and then adding .psd. In other words a jpeg named jim.jpg, when saved as psd, becomes jim.jpg.psd.

    This is weird and annoying. Is this caused by XP? I did not have this before running PS7 on W95.

    Any advice would be helpful.

    thanks.

    Default Re: File Extensions:save as

    Its a Windows thing. In any window go Tools/Folder Options/View

    Remove the check from the box next to Hide Extensions from Known File Types

    This should get things working for you.
