hey

 

so i have a .jar file which i want to execute using java although whenever i download it, it is set to default as a winrar file. 

 

I have tried changing this default but there are no other options and i need it to become a java .jar file. I have installed java but when i try open with there is no option to use java se binary which is the option that i need. 

 

Is there any solution anyone can help me with polease

If you scroll down the list, you can look for another app to open the file. You can then browse for and select javaw.exe or java.exe. It can typically be found in C:\Program Files (x86)
