I copies some games from home. They are .EXE files. However, when I try to copy them onto another computer, when my cursor hovers over them, it says they are XML files ... even though they are named .EXE. If I continue with the copy process, I cannot open them because they copy as .EXE.XML. How can I change the properties to show them as applications, and not as XML files?

To be able to rename them, you have to display the file extensions, from the folder options (more details about that here, for example):
Then you should see the .exe.xml full extension, and you should simply rename the file (press F2 on a selected file, or choose "Rename" in the right mouse button menu), to get rid of the xml extension. | ||||
