My "run.bat" file isn't working.

[going absolutely insane]

ok, so im not really sure how to explain this, so i'll just post a screenshot. i followed a tutorial on how to start a server from forge, and everything went smoothly until suddenly, the below screenshot pops up. it says that it's not installed, but it's literally right there.

i'm dumbfounded. i've tried everything i can and nothing seems to be working, it just shows the same error over and over again, without fail. i've reinstalled forge more times i can count, and tried every tutorial i saw on the matter, and still, nothing. so im coming here for help. if anyone can help me fix this problem, i would be very grateful. screenshot below.

This error is usually caused by;

* You modified one of the files that comes with forge and broke it

* You are using the wrong version of java, you need java 17

* Your installation of forge didn't complete normally and you didn't notice. There is a log file next to the forge install jar that will show any errors

most likely its the java cause that was the fix for me
