    Default Illustrator 10.3 won't save .ai files anymore

    I have Illustrator 10.3 & CS installed on my computer.

    When i am in Ill 10.3 and open a file I cant seem to save it as an AI file. The default save dialog is txt and save as gives me Ill eps, PDF and 2 types of svg formats.

    It works ok in CS

    Any clues?
