Install java. Run the downloaded file.

File association should happen automatically, but if it didn't you can find your java.exe somewhere under /Program Files/ and use that to open the downloaded file.

if you have downloaded and installed java from here then you shouldn't need to right click and open with, it should automatically open it with java when you just double click the autohaven file.
