When I try to open an Minecraft texture pack it opens Microsoft edge and downloads it again

Good evening

The reason for this is that Minecraft texture packs are usually downloaded as .zip or .rar files, not .jar files. It's possible that the file you downloaded is not actually a texture pack, or that it was downloaded incorrectly.

To open a Minecraft texture pack in the Java edition, you should follow these steps:

Download the texture pack from a trusted website, such as the official Minecraft website or a reputable modding website.

Once the file has downloaded, open the Minecraft launcher and click on "Options" and then "Resource Packs".

Click on "Open Resource Pack Folder". This will open the folder where your Minecraft resource packs are stored.

Move the downloaded texture pack file into the folder.

In the Minecraft launcher, click on "Done" and then go back to the "Resource Packs" section.

You should now see the new texture pack in the list of available resource packs. Click on it to select it, and then click "Done".

The texture pack should now be applied to your game.

Download a texture pack (also known as a resource pack) in a compatible format such as .mcpack or .zip from a trusted source. Make sure the pack is designed for Minecraft Bedrock Edition.

Open the downloaded texture pack file. It should automatically open with Minecraft Bedrock if you have the game installed.

Minecraft Bedrock will import the texture pack and prompt you to apply it. Click the "Apply" or "Activate" button to enable the texture pack.

If the texture pack doesn't automatically open with Minecraft, you can manually import it. Copy or move the downloaded .mcpack or .zip file to the following location on your mobile device:

Android: Internal Storage/games/com.mojang/resource_packs

iOS: On iOS devices, the process requires a file management app like Documents by Readdle or iExplorer. Move the texture pack file to the "games/com.mojang/resource_packs" directory.

After moving the file, open Minecraft Bedrock and go to "Settings" > "Global Resources."

In the "My Packs" section, you should see the imported texture pack listed. Tap on it to activate it.

Yes, for the MS store then you can try opening the game's marketplace to download the texture pack. You're trying to download it from Minecraft's marketplace right?

Hello edwin danielpalacios salguero,

Let us check on this together and sort this out. Rest assured, we will do to the best in our capability to assist you with your concern and help you back to gaming.

Let us try to do the following steps and see if it works from your end. Make sure your computer can handle higher definition textures before starting to install. In some cases, some PCs/Macs can't open the folder properly.

• Download or create a texture pack1.19.20
  
• Launch Minecraft, and go to Texture Packs. Select open folder, and drag the .zip file of the texture pack into the folder.
  
• Select open folder, and drag the .zip file of the texture pack into the folder.
  

For windows users, locate the .Minecraft folder. From there, locate the Texture Pack folder. For mac users, find the Minecraft folder. (Note, these folders can be found by looking at the location by pressing Force Update) Next, open the Texture Pack folder. and drag the texture pack in manually in its compressed zip file.

If the issue still persist, try to unzip the file and run it again.
