Open Computer (My Computer)
Select Folder and Search Options from Organize drop down menu
Go to View Tab
There would be checkbox for "Hide Extensions for known file types". Uncheck it and then post the full name of the file here.

I understand
But in folder and search option ,it is already unchecked.
far cry 2 is showing only "file" in file extension
see the attached images

if its not legit, its possibly an iso image. try appending ".iso" to it and see if it changes over to iso.

if not then open up daemon tools and manually mount from inside DT.

if none of this works, its probably your karma trying to tell you not to cheat the devs and buy a legit copy

yeah .iso works!!
I just renamed it to farcry2.iso
It changed to iso

thanks a lot "anirbandd"

Again thanks gameranand and anirbandd
both of you are really helpful

Yeah no problem. I was expecting this thats why I asked you for the extension.
Extension is always after the "." when you uncheck the Hide Extensions option.

heh..

then karma's a b*tch i guess
