Safari can’t open the file “EN5000_Full_WebPack_44.4.2678.exe” because no available application can open it.

Files that end in ".exe" are Windows executables, and cannot be run on a Mac directly.

If you need to run a Windows Application, then you need to either install Windows on your Mac, or use a Windows machine.
