Changing File Extensions in DOS

[blessd2000]

I am trying to chang a file extension to an .exe file in DOS (somehow my computer is reading an .exe file as something else), but when I use cn lus . . . it is not letting me. Can anyone help?

cn lus? What's that?

To change an extention in DOS just rename the file. Command

rename or ren

c:\>ren file.000 file.exe
would change file.000 to file.exe

Simple as that.

Welcome to techimo.
The command to rename files is ren or rename. I can't remember. Just do:
ren somethin.wot somethin.exe
and it should be ok. Note the 8.3 naming standard, DOS doesn't support long filenames.
