File Extensions - please HELP.

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

For some odd reason now, everything on my desktop, and inside of my folders,
pictures with the extension of JPG and so forth are not able to be saved
unless i type in the extension also. I have no clue what could have triggered
such an error, and I have no clue how to fix it. If I go and try to rename a
file in my Pictures folder, for example, I can't rename it unless i type it
as...."image.jpg"....I can't just save it as plain old, "image" - what the
heck is going on? Does anyone know what happened or how to fix this? It's
driving me insane.

Please help!!!
