Hm, the file downloaded and installed on my windows 10 device; do you have any more details you can share? If you click the windows button on the keyboard and open the About your pc
page, it should give information about your device; the System type
entry under Device specifications
and the Windows Specifications
section would be helpful.
I finally found the page that downloaded the offline editor from:
https://makecode.mindstorms.com/offline-app
Scroll to the bottom, check the box, download and install the Widows version.
It would not open. Others have tried it and filed too.

You might have to re-name the downloaded file to have a .exe
extension.
So if the file name is amd64
, rename it to amd64.exe
(or whatever, just make sure it ends in .exe
)
Yes, that is the right page; the same file works on my machine so I need more information to identify what’s causing it to fail to open. Are you perhaps using a 32 bit or ARM device? The System type value on the about your pc
info page will tell you what type it is.
When I downloaded it, the file was named like amd64
. That’s it. No extension
