So i have been having this issue where whenever i download a jar file it saves it as a Firefox file. After it saves it as a Firefox file i can no longer use it if i open it it just puts the file location in my web browser. Can anyone help me figure out how to change jar files from saving as a Firefox file and make them save as just a normal .Jar file

Does it help if you set Windows to always show all file extensions? Tips on that here if needed:
