While using chrome/edge, Oracle report (10G) is not getting converted to .XLS/XLSX

One of our oracle report gets populate in XLS format while using IE browser report name as "RWSERVLET.XLS".
But while running the same reports using chrome/edge , same file name (RWSERVLE) without extension name (XLS) gets generated.
I did some R&D and got to know that chrome doesn't support Save options due to some security reasons, but it does support "Save As ".
Now the question is that using WebLogic application/chrome browser how to instruct the Oracle report server to go for "Save As" with file name , in place of "Save".
Can some one suggest what to do to have extension file name in the file using chrome/edge.

If you install Virtualbox on your MacBook, you can use this appliance to get an Oracle database:

Mac was supported years ago with 10g. Think that even RAC support was planned. (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b25286.pdf)
As I heard things went south between Oracle and Apple, and the support for Mac was discontinued.

There are no Mac version for Oracle Databases, but as cormaco mentioned you can easily use VirtualBox to have a VM with Linux (you can use Oracle Linux) and install Oracle 18c XE on it.
Or you can use the VM he already pointed, it has Oracle 19c pre installed, and you can add 18c XE if you need (if you just want to test or do some Proof of Concept, then using the 19c should be OK, if you want to use it for commercial / production then you need either a license or to use the free XE edition).
