I'm currently delving into the world of web development, specifically exploring CSS. However, I've encountered a perplexing issue that is preventing me from applying any styling to my webpage. Initially, I suspected that the problem lied in incorrectly linking back to the style sheet, but upon further investigation, I discovered that my css file isn't saving as .css format. Despite repeatedly trying to save it with the .css extension, the file doesn't appear under that file type - instead, it only shows up as a generic "file". This bizarre behavior has persisted even when attempting to save new files as HTML. Can anyone shed light on what might be causing this strange occurrence?
Edit: In an attempt to troubleshoot, I experimented with saving files as HTML, only to encounter the same issue - all new saves default to a plain "file" type. My confusion persists as to why this keeps happening.
