Hi, I cannot change a zip file in windows 8 and was wondering if you could make the downloads as jars instead of zip files. If this is unresolved I understand that you are busy. Thank You.

When I rename it becomes "minecraft.jar.zip". If the download would have the jar extension in the zip that should work for me and others with this problem.

Weird, just rename it to minecraft.jar and it should work, if you know where to put it.

This is what is downloading from the link on the website. Above in the attachments.

Those are jar and exe files, there are no zip files

Where are you downloading it from?

Comment by Connor Hunt [ 08/Dec/12 ]

Well when I downloaded it and changed the "save as", it only lets me change from compressed zip and all files.

The launcher is an exe file, the snapshots are jar files.
When are you dealing with a zip file?
