Can I ignore the ".txt" extension while downloading a file in Macbook Pro M1?

[khair1212]

I have been trying to download a ".ipynb" file, a python notebook file. But everytime it adds an extra .txt extension and I can't even change the extension by renaming the file. So, it's so irritating right now. Is there any way to ignore the .txt extension ?

Who adds the additional extension? Safari?
If you are certain of the legitimacy of the file, you can give it any extension you want.
Have you enabled "Finder > Settings > Advanced > show all file extensions" ?

How do you get that file? Can you download it from the terminal?

Yes you can. Put the cursor at the end of the txt extension with the cursor keys, press delete 4 times and enter OR, in terminal execute: mv “file name”. ipynb.txt “filename”.ipynb

Edit (in the finder) ".ipynb.txt" to ".ipynb". That should do it.
