Root attempted rooting problem

[rootcurious]

ok so i have a huawei ascend y300 and i want to root it.i tried the superoneclick software but nothing happened so now i am going to try the towelroot method but when i download the towelroot after tapping the strange symbol,it appears as a downloaded file and not as an installable apk.does anybody know why this is happening or how i can fix it?thanks,also is there anything else i need to do before rooting?

I don't know why you started your post in Motorola Droid All Things Root,So I am moving it to the right sub forums.
And here is the root guide for your phone: [Guide] Huawei Ascend Y300 Unlock & Root - XDA Forums
