1.12.2 requires Java 8

ive tried installing java 8 ill keep trying multiple times

 

i have java8 though

 

Set the java 8 path in your script
 

"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_311\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx8G -Xms8G-jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2860.jar
pause

Keep the quotation marks and make sure the path is correct
