Windows 10: How to run .exe file in newly installed win 10 system

Hi,


i just installed the win 10 version 1909 on my new PC. At first it could not be connected to internet, so I downloaded the network driver my motherboard is gigabyte b365 ds3h in the laptop, and then copied it to my new PC. However, the .exe file became .exe* with an asterisk in the new PC, and I could not run it. I tried to remove the asterisk from the extension, and double click did not work with message this APP can not be run in this PC. I also tried to run it as administrator, and it showed that the file with the name can not ne found.


Can someone give me some tips on what this issue is, and how can I solve it?

:)
