Cannot Save As HTML after license purchase

#1

I was utilizing the free trial and had no issues saving HTML files. Now that I purchased a key and activated it, I can no longer save HTML files. I have the option available, and I select it when saving, however it appears in my folder as a File. Does anyone know if I am perhaps doing something wrong or different???

entering a license key wouldn’t have an effect on this, maybe you are accidentally doing something differently - maybe it would help if you outline the exact steps you are using to create/save your HTML files, and we can try to help you from there :slight_smile:

what OS platform are you on?

This may potentially be because you’re entering the file name as my_file and not as my_file.html. Or if you will, Sublime does not automatically append html to the end of the file name even if you select that option from the file filter in the Save dialog box.

[edit]
The above applies if you try to save a file while the syntax is set to Plain Text, which is the default for newly created tabs. If you set the syntax to HTML first, saving a file with no extension will select an appropriate extension and append it to the end of the file in some situations.
