what do you mean ?

ok so I did a output log for the launcher and look at this does this help you guys at all ?

Ok here it is I scrolled down on the 2nd one

do you guys know how to get the debug.log to be created ? because if its the process of downloading the mods that you get from the start up screen I can't get it due to the error message showing up before then preventing me from even loading up the game with forge.

Actually I can get to the folder and extract from it however the game still does not work and I'm not exactly sure where to put the folder

I did it and the exact same error still came up and I can't post the full log I believe because I don't have the debug.log in my logs folder or anywhere for that matter the strange thing is though is that I'm using the official installer also when I made a new folder it still came up with the same error message when I directed it to that folder also where is that folder supposed to be is it supposed to be in desktop or what ?

so you want me to delete the entire versions folder and re run the forge installer is that correct ?

ok how do I do that and what do I do with that folder ?

It also says target directory doesn't exist once I put this in %AppData%\.minecraft\libraries\net\minecraftforge\forge\1.12.2-14.23.4.2705

When I do it it says an error has occured extracting the files forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-universal.jar

there is 1 folder but inside of it is nothing however that might be because I was deleting some forges.

it shows me a file

I believe I do let me get git hub or paste bin rq

oops that's the windows installer I used the installer one http://adfoc.us/serve/?id=27122867254755
