Why can't Notepad in Window 11 save a .ora file?

I'm having a challenge editing a sqlnet.ora file in my Oracle network/admin folder with the build in notepad.exe in Windows 11

Whenever I try to save the file, Notepad insists on appending .txt to it.

I can get it to save as a .bat file, a .sql file and even a .exe file. However .ora seems to be forbidden some how.

Is there a setting I can change around this?

(I know... workarounds are Notepad++ and gvim and <your_favourite> and renaming afterwards)
