but when I try and download the data in just looks like this in the downloaded data column am I doing something wrong or missing something?

I think this is because you're not downloading data, you're downloading a file (which is a blob). If you're just downloading the file you can select to download it "To a File". See the attached workflow that downloads the xls file to your Downloads folder.
