It is possible your file display options are not letting you see the file extension and it would definitely explain why you can't change a .txt to .au3, do this and you will be able to see the file extension;
Open My Computer
Browse to the folder you want to have your au3 files in
Goto Tools - Folder Options - View
Uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types"
Apply then Ok
In the folder you should now be able to create a new text file and see the .txt extension, just change the .txt to .au3 and you are good to go.
Hope this helps.
