Windows DVD file library question?
On the Windows DVD there are a bunch of files. Among them is a file called "bootmgr". The problem I'm having is figuring out the extension of this file. I went and changed some properties so that Windows displays all file extensions but it's still not showing one for this file. I understand it's a boot manager of some sort but it just doesn't make sense, not to have a file extension if it is a file. Under that file is another boot manager but it has a file extension, it's called "bootmgr.efi", and I know what it does and why it's there. It's the other, unknown boot manager, that's bothering me as I don't know what it does and what kind of file it is? Does anyone know the answer to that?

That is the standard bootmgr file. It doesn't have an extension because MS didn't give it one. Similar to "ntldr" in XP.
I think the bootmgr.efi has the extension because MS wants to differentiate it from the older bootmgr.
