This is how you fix the .conf.bak issue.. (For both Xp and Vista)

I have seen ALOT of posts regarding this problem.. So...

If you are unable to simply rename or create a new .conf file..

Open up your mangos folder... Then in the top of the window you should see like Files, Edit, Show And so on...
Select Functions/Foldersettings... That should open up a window Where you can on /off a setting for known file names.. Activate that and you should be able to just rename from conf.bak to .conf...

I am NOT a MaNGOS Master or something.. So dont ask me about other probz... But hit me back if this solves your .conf issue.
