The problem is caused by a Windows setting you have. There are 2 ways you can fix this. First, open up the files you saved with Notepad, and re-save them with the name in quotes, e.g., "example.inp". The quotes keep Windows from adding the .txt extension that then means MARK does not find the .inp file.
The second way to fix this (and a more permanent solution) is to reset the Windows option to not display the extensions of file types that Windows thinks it knows about. In the Windows Explorer, follow the menu path Tools | Folder Options | View and uncheck the option "Hide extension for known file types". Then, you will be able to see the .txt extension that Windows added, and rename the file to get rid of this extension.
Sometimes Windows tries to be helpful and makes a complete mess of it.

On the drop down menu when saving an item, I can only choose a .txt file, should I have the option to save an .INP file? Also, should the encoding be ANSI, unicode or UTF?
