Running the command doesn't refresh the project in your IDE

This is not helpful at all, please provide debug.log as described in the "Logs" section of my signature below

Please don't repack any of Forge's installers, it is not necessary. We won't create a new installer just because your Java installation is broken. Try JarFix

If you want to play with Optifine you don't need Forge, and they focus on their standalone development before they work on their Forge-compatibility

Provide a new log, please

iirc that is usually fixed by refreshing the Gradle in the IDE, I'm not getting that issue

No, that's an old one, the file may be appearing as "debug" because Microsoft thinks hiding file extensions by default is a good idea

Why did you put the Forge installer in your mods folder? ThutTech and ThutCore's configs need to be deleted Your settings file seems to be incorrect

What launcher are you using? Please provide a screenshot.

You know reobfJar doesn't prevent you from decompiling your mod and it doesn't completely obfuscate your mod, right? It only reobfuscates what you use that is obfuscated in Minecraft.

NightConfig is the library used by Forge to manage config files, and we're still not quite sure where this issue is coming from

Please provide an updated debug.log

Umm...

This should be fixed now

I mean you're using old versions we don't provide support for anymore. i.e. you're on your own.

Sounds like something went wrong importing the project, try refreshing gradle

The only supported version you've mentioned is 1.16.1, and you said it works.

Does your library use any Minecraft code?

This used to be a feature, it was removed when Mojang added "Installations" to the launcher. This conversation has been had before, it will not be coming back because "Installations" supersedes it.
