    Java .jar problem


    I have some friends and family that are trying to install Java and set it up for the default .jar app, but it is only letting them use Internet Explorer, or find another app on the Microsoft store. We have tried using the OPEN WITH option in File Explorer for their .jar files, but it will not show up. It may be that we have not fully downloaded and installed Java, but does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    :)

    Java .jar file is not downloaded as a java file.

    "Reinstall or update Java Runtime Environment

    If you can’t run jar files on your Windows 10 PC, you might need to reinstall Java Runtime Environment. To do that, follow these steps:

    Press Windows Key + I to open the Settings app.

    When the Settings app opens, go to the System section. Now, choose Apps & features from the left pane.

    Locate Java from the list and choose the Uninstall option.

    After doing that, navigate to Java’s website and download the latest version of the software. Once installed, check if the problem is resolved. Keep in mind that it’s not mandatory that you remove your previous Java installation, so you can skip that step and
    just install the latest version on top.

    Java will also automatically check for updates, and if updates are available you’ll get a notification. To update Java, simply click the notification and choose the Update option. Now follow the instructions to complete the update"

    .java to .jar file

    As a side note to Easy Rhinos comment, you can only jar .class files, meaning that you need to compile all the .java files and them jar the .class files resulting from the compilation. Example:
    Code: javac Test.java jar cf Teste.jar Test.class[/quote]
