If it is CHECKED then Windows will NOT show extensions such as .zip, .doc... (i.e. the KNOWN extensions). If you REALLY want to know the FULL filename then UN-check the box and then check the file name.

On Vista, I was stumped at this one.....but, finally found it in the control panel, under "folder options".....
for sharing....this will be helpful for all sorts other applications--wish I had discovered it earlier!!
