Steps to reproduce

Upload a file
Download it
Inspect the "Save as type" field (known as the file extension filter)

Outcome

What did you expect?

For a single full stop, allowing the filter to function correctly.

What happened instead?

This prevents the file explorer from finding related files, as it's searching for ..pdf files rather than .pdf files.

Operating system

Windows 10

Application version

Nightly (2022-09-20)

How did you install the app?

Homeserver

We don't call this dialog manually except in the right click save image case, so this seems a bug with electron upstream
