MC Forge 1.17.1

[TimeRupture]

Im trying to install the lastest forge version for 1.17.1, however when i go to install the client and it finishes, i go to check the folder it is installed in and the .jar file is  missing. The .Json file appears, but not the .jar. I cannot launch mc without it. I have tried reinstalling, using different 1.17.1 forge versions, updating java, everything i can think of but no matter what the install always only includes the .json and misses the .jar. Is there any way to fix this?

Okay.

Why are you looking for a jar file? There is not supposed to be one.

in the appdata folder for .minecraft, the versions folder where forge installs it is supposed to create a folder with both a .json file and a .jar file in it. Minecraft cannot launch without both of them being present in the folder. The vanilla 1.17.1 folder has both, this forge version does not and when i try to launch this forge version it automatically crashes.

You can tell the launcher to open the log window in the settings for the installationl.

i am unable to attack the launcher log file. i get error code -200

Use a paste site, -200 means the file is too large for the forum.
