Somehow I thought it wouldn't. :/
I'll keep looking in to it for you, but I don't have a Windows machine to test it on, so I can't say whether or not something would work. It might end up being easier if you altered the file using a text editor of some kind. Or using a script (though that script might have to first rename the file with the .txt extension, then write to it, then remove .txt) of some kind.
