Hi Taras, Hide File Extensions in Windows File Explorer:
Open File Explorer.
Go to the "View" tab in the ribbon at the top.
In the "Show/hide" section, uncheck the "File name extensions" option.
This will hide file extensions in File Explorer.
Change File Extension Visibility in Windows Settings:
Open the Windows Settings by pressing the Windows key + I.
Click on "Personalization," then select "File Explorer" from the left sidebar.
Under the "Advanced settings" section, toggle off the "Show file extensions" option.
This will globally hide file extensions in Windows, including in Outlook.
Please note that changing these settings will hide file extensions system-wide, not just in Outlook.
