    "Save As" window not showing other file type in the drop down menu


    HiI hope someone can help me on this.I reset my computer and now it's working fine, except for the fact that I can't change the file type when I'm about to save it to its destination on "Save As" window. For example, I downloaded a .csv file and I want to save it as an excel file .xlsx , the dropdown menu is not showing the list of file types that I'm used to seeing before the reset. This is also applicable on other file types, it only shows that you can save it based on its original file type. For example Pdf can only be save as pdf.Here is what I see now:Before, it looks something like this

    :)

    Files and folders

    Hi Robert,

    To address this concern, we suggest that you follow these steps on how to change the default save location for your files and documents in Windows 10:

    • Open the Start menu, type Settings, then click
      Enter.
    • Click System.
    • Select Storage.
    • Under Save locations, select the location from the drop-down menu.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.

    Saves log files ?

    You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

    Download CCcleaner from here...........

    CCleaner Professional | Try the world’s most trusted PC cleaner, free!

    You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.

    "Save As" window not showing other file type in the drop down menu

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
