Is there a way to prevent TextEdit from changing the file extension on a file that I open it with, or at least prompt me?
Example:
- Open somefilename.yyy
- Save becomes somefilename.rtf
I have looked through TextEdit preferences without finding a setting.

Try with making the file to an Plain text file. It's under the Format tab (not in preferences).
Have you taken a look at this?
