Thank you that seems to have worked. I appreciate your time.

It went into my downloads folder

So when I went for the blank spot it did not have the option to open command. however I did get the command prompt to open and I followed your instructions. It failed. here is the results of your second request java version "1.8.0_241" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_241-b07) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.241-b07, mixed mode)

May I ask for specifics. I am relatively new to this. Thank you for the reply.

I have Minecraft 1.15.2. I downloaded the appropriate forge version and made sure my Java is up-to-date. Every time I launch the installer all that happens is a window pops up, there is black in the screen, and then closes. Please let me know what I am doing wrong. Thank you for your time.
