file extensions in Windows Explorer are missing

Hi,

I've been trying to set up the folder options to show file extensions when I
open my files in Windows Explorer. I always had them on my desktop computer
but they are not on my new laptop. Can somebody point me to the way to have
them show, please.

Thanks,
Nancy

Control Panel ... Folder Options ... View (tab) ... UNCHECK Hide Extensions
of known file types.
