Installer will not run

[Athleas]

Hi, ive just downloaded both the most recent versions of minecraft java and also forge, when i downloaded java it all intalled smoothly, i then downloaded forge installer and it now refuses to actually run, the forge installer icon appears as a blank piece, and when i try to tun it with java the java se icon is the standard program icon.

this is the launcher log, the problem is that whenever i try to launch the installer it asks what app to run it with and i select java se then click just once as its the only option then it asks me what app to launch it from again

You posted the minecraft launcher log?

Since you haven't installed forge yet, that is irrelevant.

If you wanted to post a log, the installer log would be more relevant (see the faq for how to find it).

 

But since you can't actually run the installer, there won't be a log for that either.

 

The link I posted above explains why you can't the run installer and how to fix it.

 

Alternatively, you can open a command line in the folder where you downloaded the installer and run the command:

java -jar forge-xxx-installer.jar

replace xxx with the version you downloaded.
