.tgz file is becoming .tar or pkg/ after downloading

I’m flummoxed on importing. The download is a .tar, how do I make it a .tgz? Renaming doesn’t seem to work. I have no developer skills, sorry if this is beyond basic.

If you’re using Safari, it’s un-compressing the file for you. (Apple trying to be “helpful”).

Turn off Open “safe” files after downloading:

That did it! And the side benefit of client content will now stop automatically opening Quicktime when the download finishes.
Thanks Andy
