Windows Thinks Cpanel Raw Access Log is A MSDOS Program

[Sleepy_Sentry]

I just downloaded a Cpanel raw access log from my website, but I cannot view it in a text editor as Windows thinks its an MSDOS program!

How can I fix this? I would really like to be able to view this information. Please do not recommend a stats program to me as I have one and am very happy with it.

You can rename it and add a proper extention to it.

You can use the OPEN command and choose what program you want to open it with from the right click window.

Same thing happens with any kind of non recognized file extension.

I am not given the option to change the program to open the file with when I right click on it. Going to "Properties" yields no results either.

I know nothing about cpanel log. What's the file extension ?

Set your file view properties to show all known file extensions... then you'll be able to change the file extension.

It works now, thanks! Changing the properties in the Control Panel worked.
