JAR files are commonly used to distribute applications and programs written in the Java programming language. Although the Windows 10 operating system is not equipped with a native application to open JAR files, this does not mean that you cannot execute these files on your computer. With a little configuration, you can open JAR files in Windows 10 using one of the many compatible applications available.

How to start a JAR file?
If you want to start a JAR file, you should make sure it is in the same folder as the rest of your class files. If it is not, you can use a tool like Winrar to extract the class files from the JAR. Once you have done this, you should see a folder called Meta-INF in its class directory. Within this folder, there should be a file called Manife.MF. This file contains information about the JAR, including the name of the main class.
To start the JAR, you must open a terminal and navigate to the folder where the JAR file is. Next, you must write the following command:
Java -Jar_del_archivo.jar
Replace_Del_archive name with the name of the JAR file. Be sure to include the extension .Jar.
This command will start the JAR and execute the main class.

How to execute a Java file?
Java is a general purpose programming language that became popular for its simplicity, robustness and portability. While there are different ways to execute a Java file, the basic process is quite simple. In this brief guide, we will show you how to execute a Java file using the command line.
Before you start, make sure you have JDK (Java Development Kit) installed in your system. If you don’t have it, you can download it for free from the Oracle website. Once JDK has installed, you should have access to a tool called Javac, which is used to compile Java source code files in object code files.
To compile and run a Java file, you must first open a terminal window. If you are in Windows, you can do it by pressing the Windows + R key and then writing CMD in the execute dialog box.
Once you have opened the terminal window, use the CD command to navigate to the folder that contains your source code file. For example, if your file is on your desktop, you can use the CD Desktop command.
Once you are in the correct folder, you can compile your source code file using the Javac command followed by the file name. For example, if your file is called Myclass.java, you would use the Javac Myclass.java command. This will generate an object code file called Myclass.class.
To execute your code file, use the Java command followed by the file name without the .class extension. For example, if your file is called Myclass.class, you would use the Java Myclass command. If everything has gone well, you should see the exit of your program at the terminal.
That is all you need to know to run a Java file. As you can see, the process is quite simple once it is customary to use the command line.
