File resolution displays the view of the contents of the file. Sometimes it is necessary to replace one permit for another. For example, when saving files using the Internet browser Opera, archives with the.rar extension are replaced with.txt or.htm. Viewing such files fails - a browser or text editor opens, which displays not the contents of the archive, but the text consisting of many squiggles.
Necessary
Internet browser and explorer (My Computer)
Instructions
Step 1
If you downloaded the archive, and it changed the extension to.htm or.txt, then it can be opened only through the archiver program (WinRar). There is also another way to open these files - by replacing the extension.
To do this, open "Explorer (My Computer)" - then the "Tools" menu - then the "Folder Options" item. In the newly opened window, go to the "File Types" tab. Click the Advanced button. Another window will open, select "Always display extension", click "OK".
Step 2
After these actions, the extension, separated by a period (NoName.htm), will be displayed in all file names. It's very easy to change file extensions. Click on the file with the right mouse button - "Rename", replace the extension you need. The same action can be performed if you intermittently click on the file name 2 times or press "F2". After these actions, a dialog box will appear, which informs you that "After changing the extension, the file may be …". Click "Yes" if you agree, otherwise click "No".
Step 3
Be careful in changing the file extension, because you can mistakenly replace the extension in system files, which will lead to undesirable consequences in the operation of your operating system. Replacing the extension of audio and video files will make these files unreadable. Use specialized programs to convert this type of files.
