show extensions for all types of files, through a batch - nicodemo - Nov 20, 2019

Is it possible on Windows to show extensions for all types of files, through a batch script?

are you saying that the file extensions are hidden in your command prompt?

you can use regedit cmd in batch change HideFileExt key to 0 in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
so
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced /v HideFileExt /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
