TextPad won't save class as .java

Question

In TextPad, I have a class called Document1. I click on file-save as and for "save as type" I click "Java". However, when I hit OK, instead of showing up as Document1.java, it shows up as Document1.txt. Why does it save as a .txt file? And how do I get it to save as a .java file?

when saving the file, try it withing quotations as such "Document1.java" and then click save. — dinukadev, Sep 27 '15 at 08:46

While saving, select the file type as All Types(*) and name as Document1.java.

You can rename the file extension from the folder, replacing the .txt with .java . Make sure to check the "File Name Extensions" box in the veiw tab so you can see the .txt and .java .
