How to properly handle jar files

Java files can be a little difficult at times. Frequently, after you just downloaded and kept the java file on the computer, windows may alter the icon & extension of that file into the .zip file.

And it can led to people not conversant with this particular issue to extract the jar file. Once that has executed, you'll encounter huge files and folders. It isn't the correct way but unfortunately certainly theres a method to bypass an. Here's what you need to do instead;

First, on the personal computer*, open Windows Explorer then choose

Tools -Folder Options -View and "deselect" the Hide extensions for a specific file type.

Now can you get the whole extension of the file and alter the .zip to the .jar and send it out to your cellphone.
