Like most of you I am using Win32Disk Imager.  My laptop O/S is Windows
10.  I created a backup of my mini and saved it to a folder for Backup
files for my Nodes.  When asked for the filename I gave it "K5CKS Backup"
and started the backup.  When complete I went to the folder to make sure
the file is where I want it and found my backup listed in the directory as
a simple "File", not an image (.img).  I went back to Win32 Disk Imager and
started a new backup using the filename K5CKS Backup.img and ran the
backup.  When complete the file now shows as an .img (Disk Image) file like
it should.  Win32 Disk imager does not write an image file unless you tell
it that it is an image file in the filename.  Something to change in the
next ver release.

Rory, K5CKS
