Does it matter that I'm using Firefox. It keeps trying to save it as a text file. Should I be using Explorer instead? Thanks.
Renaming the extension should work. If you are using windows then to see extension follow this instructions: https://www.howtohaven.com/system/show-file-extensions-in-windows-explorer.shtmlIf you keep failing then I will recommend to download notepad++ and with this you can easily save .asc extension.
I hope it helps.
Thanks Royse. I believe I got it right. The verify files window in Kleopatra came up green after all operations completed at 100% and the Primary key fingerprint numbers matched up. Thanks again for your help.

Hi,
So I download the latest version of Electrum and want to verify the download.
On the instructions is says I need to download Electrum and the signature for the file, where do I find the signature file? Thanks.
Ok found it, ugg, right next to the download. The instructions say to save them in the same file, how do I do that? Also, which should I use the "Installer" or "StandAlone Exe" version. I'm using Windows. Sorry to be such a noob, just try'in to get it right.
