I think this feature was introduced with Vista: in the Explorer, when you shift to file renaming, the entire filename is selected by default, except the extension. This is surely a friendly feature to ensure you don't change the extension by mistake. I don't like this friendly feature. I want the whole file name selected, with extension, by default. It's there a way to do that?

Note: I'm not asking how to make extensions show. This issue appears even with extensions displayed.

Open File Explorer. Click the little up arrow at the top of the windows to make the Ribbon visible. Go to the View tab in the Ribbon. In the Show/Hide group simply check the File Name Extensions box. -hope this helps...
