when i upload a .docx or just now a .xlsx the upload folder contains the correct file extension. however when i try to download either of those files it changes the .docx and .xlsx to .docx.doc and .xlsx.xls respectively and the program complains about the format and won’t open them. so it happens for me with both .docx and .xlsx and only when downloading the file.

this is happening on a new install with MS Word documents whereby the extension .docx changes to .docx.doc

did you ever get a reply and solution?

Same happening with my new install, done by the hosting company on a remote windows 2003 server computer. I’m not sure what version WP they have installed (is there a way to check this?). Admin/manage/uploads only shows the thumbnails and clicking on one brings up the admin dashboard. Same happens if in writing a post I click the ‘browse all’ button.

It seems a patch is in order.
