.jpg and/or .CR3 now appear on my PS files when I go to open them for editing. Remove please?

Question

I am using Photoshop and when I go to save my image file the .jpg or .cre shows up on my screen after every file. This never occured before. I would like it to go away.

example of what the file name looks like on my save as screen:

3O7A6965.jpg

example of what the file name looks like after I have named & saved it:

3O7A6965.jpg 02 Easton Laubscher 02.jpg

Example of what it previously would look like when I named & saved it:

3O7A6965 02 Easton Laubscher 02.jpg

I never needed to use the extra keystrokes to delete .jpg for EVERY file I was saving. There must be something I clicked.

Thanks for your help.

On the face of it, this looks like normal behavior to me. This is what I would expect if you just add the new filename at the end.

Windows treats everything after the last period as the file extension, so it's perfectly possible to have multiple extensions. But only the last one is valid. Do you have extensions hidden or showing in Windows? Hidden extensions can cause this kind of problems. I've alway had extensions showing, and I don't know how it looks in the Save As dialog if they're hidden.
