Select full file name when renaming on Windows 7

When I select a file in the file explorer and press F2 I get the file name highlighted, but not including the extension:

Is there any way I can get the whole file name including extension selected without using third-party software (as opposed to this post: Select full file name when renaming on Windows)? Or do I have to live with typing Alt + A to select the full file name.

Yes, you need to press Ctrl + A when you want to select it all. Otherwise, use the command prompt
