Delete the libraries folder and run the launcher NOT as admin, then try installing Forge again

I asked you a yes/no question and you replied with "it's still not working"

"What were you doing when the pain occurred?" "It hurts, doc!"

Did you run it as admin after you deleted the libraries folder?

Can you provide a screenshot?

I get the feeling you are talking about the Forge installer rather than your Minecraft Launcher that I asked about

Do you run your Minecraft launcher as admin or something? (Note: I'm not saying "Do so" I'm asking if you already do)

Yes, you might want to check JEI's settings (click the spanner/wrench) to see its search operators

If you run it from the command line, what shows up?
