- If click at the icon of a filter file, just open PowerReplace application. Don't convert this filter file.
- New file location = old file location + 16.

Filter File Format:
To make a text file into filter, PowerReplace adds some resource into it, then changes its creator. That's all. Filter file is still a text file, and you can modify it using any text editor, too!
