Support & Bug Reports

When I try to run forge on my laptop an error pops up saying "This app does not have an association with it." What do I do to fix this? 

Do you have Java installed?

I am using Windows 10 and when I open the forge-11.16.4-35.1.4.jar file nothing happens. Also another bug with 1.8's server, it doesn't even work. yes ik that 1.8 isn't supported but if anyone can help me with both feel free to.

whenever i try to load up forge version 1.16.3, it gets to this red early fml page and crashes soon after. i'm on mac os big sur, and the crash report is below, along with a screenshot of the fml page. if there's any more information i can provide, i'm happy to do my best to share.   https://imgur.com/2RyAa7Z   ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Everything's going to plan.

There is no way to do this. The smithing container is hardcoded to just decrease its inputs and not use the container item (see SmithingTableContainer#func_230301_a_).
