Is there a reason even stable Win versions never reference the OS in file names?.exe is a Windows(-only) extension. I agree that the OS could be added to the file name to avoid confusion.
Thanks, but a question / comment.Except in this case, the file / package isn't an executable - it's a compressed archive. The "exe" may be used here to indicate a Windows build, but it's just a zipped (.7z) file. I'm sure lots of new users are confused by the .exe, in spite of instructions.
Technically, shouldn't the Windows packages have a compressed archive extension, like the other platforms? Besides, emailing a Windows TBB package w/ .exe extension can create problems. Why not call it what it is?
