I can't create a .ini file.
Hey I'm trying out the first Rainmeter tutorial (http://rainmeter.net/cms/Rainmeter101-Tutorial1) and as the title says i can't create a .ini file. Apperently it should be as easy as pressing the right mouse button, create a new text document and save it as .ini istead of .txt but on my computer(windows 7) the only option is the .txt. If anyone know a solution to my problem i would be eternaly grateful Thanks in advance

Sure, in any Explorer window, use "Organize", then "Folder and Search Options / View". Then uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types". Click "Ok".
Now you should be all set.

The easiest way to save a file as a .ini file in Windows 7 is to do the following:
-Open a new text document
-Go to Save or Save As
-Save as type 'All Files(*.*)' instead of (*.txt)
-Name your file filename.ini
*Be sure to include the .ini at the end of your file name and Windows 7 will automatically make that file into a .ini file.
