Open JAR files in Windows, but how?


You can open , change and edit "JAR files" in Windows 11, 10, ... amd MS Server OS without additional software .



Open JAR files with no ifs or buts!
This simple and short example can be used as a general Windows solution for all Windows and server systems, because the zip folder function is also available from Windows 2000 onwards. However, if you don't like handling the JAR files with the Microsoft solution, you can also use the free 7-Zip .

Yes, don't just open it, but change the content and edit it like a simple folder! 

1.) ... Simply open the JAR file without additional software!
2.) ... Permanently register the JAR file as a folder in the file explorer!



1.) Simply open the JAR file without additional software!

A "JAR file" is nothing more than a simple "zip archive" or "zip file".

The name was introduced a long time ago in order to recognize the JAVA apps (Java-Archive) on the hard drive faster and better!

JAR = Java archive

If you rename the xxx.jar to xxx.jar.zip , it will be treated like a zip folder under Windows.

Or you can simply change the Windows file assignment under Windows:
►►► In Windows 10 / 11, the files are opened with the wrong program!
See also: ►► Show file name extension in Windows 10, is that possible?

Opening the Jar files works under: Windows 11, 10 , 8.1, 8, 7: Pro, Home, Enterprise, Basic, Premium, Professional, Starter, Ultimate, Windows-Server 2019, 2016, 2012 and is possible without additional software.

2.) Permanently register the JAR file as a folder in the file explorer!


If you want, you can also register the JAR file as a Windows folder through a simple registry entry in Windows! I have already prepared the script for download here. 

►►►  ... Jar-file.zip



Simply download and start the script as admin (right mouse button), then the JAR file appears as a folder in the file explorer ( ... see Image-1 ) and can be treated as a folder as normal
