hosts – how can I save this [ 830 views ]
Goal: to save a file without extension from notepad.exe
For example sometimes we need to edit the hosts file. From notepad this is easy, but to save it without .txt or .other extension is a little bit tricky.
In the save as panel just put the name “hosts”, and that’s all.
Don’t forget to open the notepad as administrator
right click on the notepad.exe link and select Run as administrator point
Without this you can not overwrite the existing file!
