Why do my .not file attachments have a .php extension when I open them.

Hi Martin,

I am not very current, still being on Windows 7 (but, up-to-date), and I only have a few music/notation apps, but I would guess you have an app that does/has appropriate/d the .not extension for its own purposes. This does not happen on my PCs.

The site, "http://file.org/extension/php" says:

What is a PHP file?

PHP is a scripting language that is often used to develop a variety of web pages and Internet applications. Files that have the .php extension can contain text, HTML tags and scripts. These files are processed by a remote server and are then returned to the user's Web browser as plain HTML....

So, perhaps you may have an app that works with files with php extensions.

Hi guys,

If you're trying to use the right-click "Save as" or "Save file" option for your browser that probably explains the php file extension. The scripts that run the forum software are php. All you need to do is left-click the attachments and the php script will run to give you the same effect as a right-click-select-what-to-do maneuver.

ttfn,
Sherry

Thanks Sherry. I thought left clicking would solve it but right or left clicking a .not attachment still produces the php. I have no other problem with .not file associations on my pc.

Hi,

For quite some time now, I am getting the .php extension instead a .not extension, on downloading a .not attachment. This is so in W7 and W10.

Thanks for that Herbert. I've tried altering one or two script settings but nothing worked. Its easy to alter a file extension... but it shouldn't be necessary!!
