Whenever I click in the forge installer the installer asks for how I want to open the .jar file (first image), At fisrt I thought it was a problem with java so I installed JRE (java runtime envirotment) and proceeded to start now the installer with the JRE file (second image).
I`m  sorry if this isn`t that helpful but I don`t what to do, I already spent trying to figure out but it always ended the same way.

translations for the images:
1- "how would you like to open the .jar file
 -.....
 -.....
 -..... 
 more apps"
2- "Java Installation not complete
      It is not possible to install java
      There are problems with the switches:
      C:\\Users\mateu\Desktop\forge-1.16.5 -36.1.0-installer.jar
      Verify if the commands are valid and try again"

Some zip managers like to take control of the .jar file extension away from Java.
Make sure you have Java installed and try running Jarfix once, then try the installer again.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.
