Yo P2P folk

Can anyone tell me how to change a file extention.....I've got a d/loaded 'iso' file which has had 'exe' added to the end. I need to get rid of the exe to be able to burn it.

Thanx for any answers:shy :wings :fire :devil :

All you have to do is rename it, right click on it and choose rename and take the exe part off.
If you can't see the exe part, than it is hidden and you need to unhide your file extentions.Depending on your OS, there are 3 different ways to do this.
You have to find the way for your OS, I don't have the last anymore that had it broken down.
95-98 are the same, you can find it under Windows Explorer/View/Options/Unhide File Extentions.
ME and XP are different, I belive you can find it under Internet Options/Folders/Unhide File Extentions.
