Didn't even notice the _45, I'll figure out if it's downloading somewhere else. Last thing, I've read somewhere that I can have java 8 installed (for things like minecraft) and have java 9 as well, Can you confirm / deny for me? And thanks for the help again

Here's a couple screenshots, thanks for the help

I removed both java 9 jdk and jre, so only 8 is installed. the PATH variable was set to jre9\bin, but went back in and changed it to jre8\ (however, option for bin is no longer there, so left it just at that folder). I did the java -version last night, but i'll do it again here shortly to confirm. I have it directed to the jre8, but was unable to go into the bin folder to select the exe. Fresh Download of java 8 update 151 i believe.

Going off this, I believe it's the same issue. Downloaded java 9, but java 8 was still installed. attempted to open my 1.12.2 server with the batch, [ java -Xms5120M -Xmx5120M -jar -d64 "forge-1.12.2-14.23.0.2546-universal.jar" nogui ] and the cmd opens for a moment then closes. (Was difficult to capture this image due to it) I had tried removing java 8 to see if there was a conflict with having both, but after more searching found this, and redownloaded 8 (and uninstalled 9 temporarily). However, now the cmd window doesn't even come up fully before closing again. No error logs and no text displayed on the very brief window. I tried installing the server in a new folder with a fresh installer, and the vanilla server loads, but when attempting the server from the new location, the same thing happens. Any help is appreciated, as I am unable to find anything anywhere else.
