Windows does not let you change the file extension on known file types, you are just renaming the file to X.cfg.txt. Do this: http://www.programmerfish.com/how-to-change-file-extension-in-windows-7/ and you then will be able to change the file extension.
Disable "Hide extensions for known file types" in Folder options under Windows Explorer. Then try removing the .txt extension from the file by renaming it.
