In changing a file extension, such as from .txt to .java, or .html to .txt, a
warning needing a confirmation is always displayed.

Is there a way that I can stop this from appearing? I know it's just a
click, but I don't want to have to do that click or get that message... it's
not an assistance to me.

Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Do it in a command prompt (ren) & it won't ask you or prompt you or nothin'.

Yep, I know that's possible, thank you. I have a tiny bat file that renames
some items for me when I have a group I need to do at once, but I'm hoping to
find a way to turn off the notification so I can do it in the windows
interface anywhere in the directory structure without worrying about it.

Ah, I see. Sorry - I'm out of ideas.
