Hi All,
IMHO I find the way that Notepad saves it's information to be anoying. I think you should allow the user to always be the part that decides since they have to go hunting for the file they just saved. If you name it something different it will be harder for them to find the file. I am not sure how dxdiag.exe saves it's files but if it works the same as notepad then I believe it is wrong.
