i feel like an idiot

when i download some music, it saves it as a BMP image file. How do i change it from that BMP image to an actual .zip file?

uhm..
right click the file and click rename.
eg.
if it was 1tym.bmp
type in 1tym.zip
instead..
something like that..
what windows are you using?
sometimes windows is set so that you cant see the file extensions, so i'm not too sure. ill get back to you on this

sorry, i have no idea how to change them *sigh*
i guess you could just try opening it in winzip regardless of its extension. that works for me alot of the time...

sorry i wasnt much help :huh:

go to the folder where you have the file
then click on "tools" > "folder options" > click on the "view" tab > and then go down to about 10 lines and you see a box and next to it, it says hide file extensions for known file types, make sure there is no check mark there. if there is, click on the boz and make the check disappear hope that helps
