.txt next to documents ?

Hello.

I bought a new pc at the end of Sep. And i just got done tweaking it, except that im still in the process of making a backup to hd with Macrium and might check out the BIOS settings aswell to see if there is anything i want to change there. But i notice that i have made some change that puts .txt next to all my documents, but i cant remember where i turned that on. So does anyone know where to turn it off again ?

Hello @BossSiggy,

It is a Setting in File Explorer Options > Hide or Show File Name Extensions in Windows 10

I hope this helps.

That helped, thanks.

Not to forget the security aspect, I would keep file extensions visible.

Is there a group policy for this? I would like to make it very difficult (preferably impossible) to hide file extensions. Hidden file extensions are a serious security hole - the virus-writer's best friend.
