xp option
I have a little problem...
Naturally XP does not display any "known" file-extensions...
In the "folder preferences" [i don't know whats the exact expression for it] there is a checkbox "hide known file - extensions"...
Is there any way to deactivate this checkbox with NSIS?

i guess its some key in

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\HideFileExt

you can verify that by changing that option, to see if a key's value changes

Try a registry monitor to see what Windows changes.
