I have 2 laptops. One use linux-os (bunsenlabs) and the other one use windows 7. I try to save pages from linux-os using mozilla. Say that the saved files from a page with name "Support Mozilla Pages", so there are 2 results from saving the pages: (1) The folder which contains img,css,js etc and (2) the *.html file. Is OK on linux-os there are no problem when I try to reopen it on browser. But when I try to move those files on Windows Explorer, those are become like this: (1 the folder) DGC1KS~W and (2 the *.html file) DGC1KS~W. I try to open that file with mozilla, and it can but with no css, img, js etc. Why this is happen? But otherwise when I try to open save page from windows mozilla to linux there are no problem. Thank you for reading this.

You can check HTML file to see if the links point to the correct location for the additional files and you may have to edit file to make this work.
