Hi, when i try to install forge 43.1.43 for 1.19.2 i get this error.

I tried to do a backup of the .minecraft folder and try it with a new .minecraft folder but this error doesn't go away.

Hi!

It looks like you're having issues installing Forge. In order to root out one of the more common issues, we'll need to see your hosts file.

Here's the steps to getting this file.

1) Press the Win + R key on your keyboard.
2) Paste the following into the prompt that opens: notepad %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
3) Use Ctrl+A to select everything in the file, then Ctrl+C into the textbox to post to this thread.

Looking forward to your reply!

Hi, this is the hosts file:

 

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
#    127.0.0.1       localhost
#    ::1             localhost
