Please make the standard Windows icons more distinguishable. Like completelety red .bpn icon instead of the tiny red arrow.

There's not really a need to see them.
These are purely a backup of your last save, so should you accidentally make a save when you shouldn't have or sometimes when a file goes corrupt, you have a reserve file you can open.

For example I have used the .bpn to create superseded copies of models when I have forgotten to create them before implementing major changes. Much easier to track than file states on a server or if you do not have file states.

This is the same on the Mac. The .bpn icon needs to be updated to be significantly different.
