Reproducible: Always

2.selecting "Generators -> Counter 
3."Save as" *MLT in a folder 
4.Error message "Clip is invalid and will be remove"
Actual Results:  
Error message "Clip is invalid and will be remove"

I can confirm. The workaround is to add .mlt after the name of the project since the program is not doing it automatically hence causing the bug.

Program add automatically .mlt but when i try to save the clip in a folder (for example counter1.mlt) the message still "invalid clip". Practically can't use generators
