When I save a doc in Word extention shows

Ed Bartunek

I recently lost my power supply (maybe the motherboard) so I swapped my hard
drives (primary and slave), keeping the operating system original and not
useing the new machines OS.

When saving Word and Excel (probably Access and Powerpoint too) docs in the
past, all that would be saved would be the file name. Now I get the file
name and the extension (.doc).

How do I get this to go away. I know there is someplace that I can "uncheck".

The difference is that NOW you can see the extension. It has ALWAYS been
there, just not shown. Open a folder and pick Tools, Folder options,
View, scroll down and Check mark in "Hide extensions for known file types".
