Description of the Issue

If you have a file with an alternate data stream, make some changes to the main one, then save. All the other data streams will disappear.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. Create an alternate data stream on a file. ( In cmd: 'echo something > myfile.txt:secondstream' )
  2. Open up myfile normally by just double-clicking it.
  3. Do some changes and hit save.
  4. The 'secondstream' you created is now gone.

Expected Behavior

The expected behaviour is that all of the file's streams won't disappear.

Actual Behavior

What happens is that all of the file's streams disappear.
