Problem with Microsoft.Win32.OpenFileDialog/SaveFileDialog

Question

Hello,

I seem to be having a rather strange bug in windows 10 using WPF I know WPF has not been updated to support windows 10 effects but it should still work correctly yes?

My problem, as the title says is with the Win32 Dialogs now I can get both to open however for some strange reason they are not showing files that match their only / selected filter!

So as you can see I have a save dialog but it's not showing test.wkproj but if I try to save it knows it's there and prompts for an overwrite. the Exact same thing happens with the OpenFile version it will not show the file but if I type in the filename test.wkproj it will load the file so is this a bug in Windows 10 or WPF? 

OS Info: Windows 10 Home none-preview build channel
VS Info: 2015 Community Edition

Code Used:

Microsoft.Win32.SaveFileDialog dlg = new Microsoft.Win32.SaveFileDialog();

// Set filter for file extension and default file extension 
dlg.DefaultExt = ".wkproj";
dlg.Filter = "WebKidz Project|*.wkp,*.wkproj";

// Display OpenFileDialog by calling ShowDialog method 
Nullable<bool> result = dlg.ShowDialog();

// Get the selected file name and display in a TextBox 
if (result == true)
{
    // Open document 
    currentProjPath = dlg.FileName;
    currentProject = new Classes.ProjectManager(dlg.SafeFileName.Replace(".wkp", ""));
    currentProject.BuildTreeView(ProjectList);
    currentProject.Save(currentProjPath);
    OverlayVisability(Visibility.Hidden);
}

Answer 1

Change your filter to:

 dlg.Filter = "WebKidz|*.wkp|WebKidz Project|*.wkproj";

If you want to be able to accept and filter several different extensions under the single name of "WebKidz Project", you should replace the ',' (colon) with a (semi-colon) ';':

dlg.Filter = "WebKidz Project|*.wkp;*.wpproj";

Hope that helps.
