MacOS .app files display and behave like folder in windows explorer

I have a spring boot server hosting a product's file distribution and the product has .exe and .app versions. The .exe file is stored and transmitted without issue but the .app file (created from MacOS and transferred into windows via TeamViewer) is displayed as a folder. The server does not recognize it as a file as well and throws
java.io.FileNotFoundException: source\MyApp.app (Access is denied)
When I create a sample text file and save it as test.app it is treated as a file and not a folder. There is no option to change the folder to a file or method to change it's default opening with explorer. I think it does not care about the .app extension and it treats the .app as file name. I tried to zip it and send to windows but it still doesn't work. See the screenshot for what I mean.
My question is is there any way to change the way windows treats the .app file as a folder? I want it to treat it like a unopenable or raw file.
I solved it by removing the extension and treating it as a normal folder (because .app will not allow Java to read from it and I don't know why). Then I read the contents of the file and made it into a zip archive with the extension 'app' and it works correctly.
I am accepting this as a temporary solution but need to find the cause of this problem.

Xamarin component.exe is not opening on Windows

I have downloaded the XPGK .zip archive to be able to upload my component to the Xamarin Store. I have done so by following the first step of this guide.
But when I click the .exe file a command prompt file just appears and disappears? What's the issue?
Did you follow the guide? It doesn't mention that you should click the .exe file to open it. Instead, the .exe file is used to generate the directory structure required for your component.
Use the xamarin-component.exe to create the base structure by typing the following into the console/terminal where is the base folder for your component.
Note: you will need to change the path to the location where you extracted the ".exe” file.
This means that you should first extract the .exe file to a directory where you want your solution to be placed (most likely your workspace).
Then, using a console/terminal, navigate to the directory in which you extracted the .exe file and type the following:
For Windows:
xamarin-component.exe create <foldername>
for OS X:
mono xamarin-component.exe create <foldername>
Where <foldername> is the name you want your directory to be.

Make an app open on typing the name in run command

I want to open certain folders and files using run command.
I know that creating a shortcut for the required file or folder and placing it in the System32 folder will do the task. However i don't like to use System32 folder.
I would like to know if it is possible to create a folder under local hard disk and put the shortcuts into that and i would route it some how such that i would be able to open the apps and the files directly by typing the name of the shortcut into the run window.
Setting any Environment Variables would help?
Adding the folder to the PATH variable solved the issue.

error when i want to save java file in jdk/bin

when i save java file error is you dont have permission to save in this location contact the administrator to obtain permission on window7
Don't store application data in the "Program Files" directory.
It is very bad design and regular users don't have write access to that directory (for a very good reason).
So even if you changed your settings locally to open up the door for viruses your application won't run on other computers.
Besides: storing a Java file in the JDK directory serves no purpose at all.
Btw: your uppercase letters are broken, as well as the dot or the comma...
That's normal - jdk/bin is the installation directory of the JDK, regular users cannot (and should not) write files there. You'll have the same problem on Linux/Unix and on Mac OS X, where installation directories are off-limits to regular users.
Write your files to the users home directory (System property "user.home", works across platforms), or let the user choose where you save stuff.
Bin directory do not allow directly to save program in it.
it is so simple, just save your .java file on desktop and then copy paste it in Bin. done ;)
If the file can't save directly to c:\program files\java\jdk1.8.0\bin\
Solution:-
Click start Menu type Notepad command in run run as administrator
Right click the Notepad run as Administrator, then type the program file can save directly to c:\program files\java\jdk1.8.0\bin\
Just try it......

Remove execute permission on file downloaded on a Mac

We have a web app running on a Windows server, which allows a user to do some processing and download the results. The result is a set of files which are dynamically created on the server and zipped into a single file for facilitating the download process.
Everything works fine on Windows, but when users download the file from the web app on a Mac, the contents of the zip file have the execute (chmod +x) permission set (I presume that the same happens on *NIX and Linux machines). This can, of course, be removed by running the 'chmod -x' command, but is there a way by which one can remove the execute permission on the files, so that when downloaded on a Mac, the files don't have the execute permission set by default?
I believe it's not possible - .zip files don't contain permissions, so on a Mac it has to default to "most permissive" (otherwise it's possible that there are applications inside the zip that wouldn't be marked as executable when they need to be).
tars, for instance, do record permissions, but that'd be a bit more difficult to create on a Windows server.
