Hide file extensions for known file types. Can this be toggled using a registry entry.

Here's a possibility:

drill down to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer

add new REG_DWORD and name it NoFolderOptions
set the value to 1
changes take effect immediately.

This also disables the general/view tabs.

You can toggle you desired setting by seting up two reg files. One with the value set to 1 for on. The other set to 0 for off.
