    I still don’t get why this is the default, and why people don’t change it when they install. It’s been a detriment of the OS since day one, and changing that one thing alone probably could have saved so many people over the decades.

        I think it’s in the view menu, or in folder options somewhere. I only really use Windows at work these days so I can’t check it right now. But yeah, you can turn on extensions. It used to be one of the first things I did on a Windows install.
