Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\*\\shell\\DisplayFileExt]

@=“Show/Hide File Extensions&

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\*\\shell\\DisplayFileExt\\Command]

@=“WScript.exe C:\\\\Windows\\\\SuperHidden.vbs”

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\Directory\\Background\\shell\\ DisplayFileExt]

@=“Show/Hide File Extensions&

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\Directory\\Background\\shell\\DisplayFileExt\\Command]

@=“WScript .exe C:\\\\Windows\\\\SuperHidden.vbs”

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\Folder\\shell\\DisplayFileExt]

@=“Show/Hide File Extensions&

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\Folder\\shell\\DisplayFileExt\\Command]

@=“WScript.exe C:\\\\Windows\\\\SuperHidden.vbs”

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\ *\\shell\\DisplayFileExt]

@=“Show/Hide File Expansion Name 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\*\\shell\\DisplayFileExt\\Command]

@=“WScript.exe C:\\\\Windows\\\\SuperHidden.vbs”

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\Directory\\Background\\shell\\DisplayFileExt]

@=“Show/Hide File Extensions&

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\ Directory\\Background\\shell\\DisplayFileExt\\Command]

@=“Show/Hide File Extensions&

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\Folder\\shell\\DisplayFileExt\\Command]

@= <;WScript.exe C:\\\\Windows\\\\SuperHidden.vbs”

2. Just save a file name with the suffix reg. When prompted, confirm the changes.
