Don't download random .deb packages if you are a novice. It's too easy to break your system that way.
Use the proper applications to download and install software safely and easily:
- Ubuntu Software (Desktop)
- Apt (Desktop and Server)
If your software is not available there, then ask here about how to install it. Provide a link to the software's web page.
The phrasing of the question suggests that you double-clicked on a trusted .deb (trust is important), which should normally open Ubuntu Software and offer to install. So make sure your have the snap-store snap installed.
sudo snap install snap-store.
