Hello, I'm having a strange problem trying to run minecraft 1.7.2 with forge. I am working on a windows 8 system with the latest version of java (currently 8 version 11 I believe, I just downloaded it). Now the strange problem is that minecraft with forge will work for several versions I've tried (1.5, 1.7.10, 1.8, 1.6.4), all expect 1.7.2. There's no error report when I try to launch the game, it's that the game doesn't launch, as if the computer forgot what it was doing (it will immediately open for all other versions).
I am running no mods yet, it's just that forge alone will not initiate.
I've had experience using forge on my primary computer with several mods in several minecraft versions without any problems, maybe since this is a windows (my primary is a mac) I don't really know what I'm doing? But as I said, forge will successfully run with other versions of minecraft on the windows computer, just not with minecraft 1.7.2
