CREO Versionioned File Extensions not showing up in Windows Explorer?

[GO_10898978]

This may be a silly question:

- I recently started using CREO at work. I had a PC when I first got at work. They switched me out to a laptop.

- I thought I remembered that CREO Versioned File Extensions (i.e. .1, .2, ... .50, .51) showed up in Windows FIle Explorer. Am I crazy?

- I need to know the latest versioned file since this is how we manage rev control at our work - not Windchill here.

- I remember the versioned file extensions showed up on my PC - now with my laptop I see nothing.

- Is this a Window File Explorer setting - or a CREO setting?

- So, when I have to upload a specific versioned file I have to use Windows sort by date to see latest.

- Please help me see the actual versioned files in Windows Explorer or open/save dialog box.

Thanks

I found it my bad - I looked through Folder Options in windows. It's the hide file extensions of known files:

Article - CS48123 - Creo file version numbers are not getting displayed at the saved location in Windows Explorer (ptc.com)

This took me 30 minutes to resolve. Now I know going forward.
