I am very new to java and spring boot. I just need to understand a code in spring boot and for that I am trying to install STS.I tried downloading STS from the site https://spring.io/tools#suite-three which is for windows 64 bit, However, I am not able to extract the jar file and it is seen as below and not the actual file.

enter image description here

I understand the pre requisite for installing STS is java 1.8 which I did the below enter image description here

I also added PATH same as CLASSPATH

still not able to extract STS.

Can anyone help please?

  • Open a terminal in the same directory where jar file is present.
  • run java -jar [jarName].jar
  • this will extract jar contents in the same directory within a new folder named sts-4.XX.X.RELEASE
  • go inside that folder and double-click SpringToolSuite4.exe to open STS IDE (Spring Tool Suite - Integrated Development Terminal).
  • Start Coding! :)
