[json] Save a file in json format using Notepad++

I have a json format (let's say text) in Notepad++.

I want to save it as a json file using filename.json format.

How can I make it in Notepad++ (because I can't find the extension when I go to save as option)

Just show file name extension from Windows Explorer, after applying the below steps, create a new file, and type your extension as .json

Open Folder Options by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.

Click the View tab, and then, under Advanced settings, clear the Hide extensions for known file types check box, and then click OK

Reference

Simply you can save with extension .json but while saving you have to do some changes.

Change Save as type in red circle in image to All Files.

It will create .json file with name bharti.json.

To check this --> Right click at file --> Properties --> Type of file: JSON File (.json)

In Notepad++ on the Language menu you will find the menu item - 'J' and under this menu item chose the language - JSON.

Once you select the JSON language then you won't have to worry about how to save it. When you save it it will by default save it as .JSON file, you have to just select the location of the file.

You can do using a simple notepad and save as FILENAME.json

That's all.

If you want to save to a specific filename just ignore the provided extensions in Notepad/Word/whatever. Just set the filename.ext in " " and you're done. "Save as type" will be ignored.

Save the file as *.txt and then rename the file and change the file extension to json
