I'm not entirely sure where to put this because it's not really related to any problems that I'm having or any broken apps, but more just a usability issue with Explorer itself.
Does anyone know how to have folder extensions displayed? I find it a little ridiculous that the upgrade creates a Windows.old folder, but folder extensions are hidden by default. It's even more inane that if you accidentally type a period when renaming a folder, it will then take on that extension, which will subsequently disappear and no longer be editable.
Enabling view system files and folders as well as hidden folders and enabling showing of extensions for known file types does nothing. The only way I've found to view the extension that a folder has assigned to it is by right clicking and viewing its properties (Type: Folder (.randomextension)), or by viewing it in the command prompt.
