Hello,
I've found what I think is a problem with IE9. I have a .snippet (Visual Studio code snippet file) that I'm trying to download off a Share Point site with IE9 and Win7 x64. The file is supposed to go in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC#\Snippets\1033\Visual C# location. The file name is something like _MyFile.snippet (it starts with an underscore character). On the file on the Share Point site, I do a Send To, Download a copy. Then I do a Save As an put in the path to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC#\Snippets\1033\Visual C#.
In the Save As Dialog that opens up, I've quadruple-checked and the path in the Save As dialog is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC#\Snippets\1033\Visual C#" (I copied and pasted the preceding path). The file name is _MyFile.snippet. I then get prompted that _MyFile.snippet already exists, do I want to replace it. I say yes.
If I then open explorer and go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC#\Snippets\1033\Visual C#, I do not see the file (Show hidden files is checked). I navigate to this folder in cmd.exe and do a dir /a, I do not see the file. I navigate to the folder in Windows PowerShell and do a Get-ChildItem -force, and I do not see the file. The only thing that seems to "see" the file is the "Save As" dialog in IE9. What's up with that?
I just download it to the myuserprofile/downloads directory and copy it to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC#\Snippets\1033\Visual C# location, but something is very odd here.
