I've downloaded Forge from this link > https://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/index_1.14.2.html < using the "installer" button
It downloads properly but upon opening the installer (a .jar file) it opens a black box, flashes text, then immediately closes out
I'm unable to provide a screenshot due to how quickly the box closes, but I took a burst picture with my phone and can relay the text:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre-9.0.4\bin\java.exe
Error: Could not find or load main class C:\Users\tyrar\Desktop\forge-1.14.2-26.0.35-installer.jar
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: C:\Users\tyrar\Desktop\forge-1.14.2-26.0.35-installer.jar
I also downloaded version 26.0.5 (as per the instructions of a video on how to install the new Forge update) and got the same issue
So far I've tried restarting my computer and downloading the latest version of Java, but neither solution worked
