Windows 10: What do I want to do with Internet Explorer.jar?

"What do you want to do with Internet Explorer.jar?" This is the only option I have when I click on internet explorer. I can either OPEN, SAVE, or SAVE AS. When i click OPEN, the next prompt brings be to a view and track download dialogue box where I can either Save or Clear List. When I save, it downloads, and brings me back to the original question, "What do you want to do with Internet Explorer.jar?" I just want to be able to use my Internet Explorer. Please advise. Thank you ahead of time.

Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?




Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
