1.14.3 Forge Installer cant open even if I downloaded Java

[Mr_OtterV2]

I originally had to use forge with the Windows Installer for 1.12.2 Works great, really. Then I go to download 1.14.3 and there is no windows installer. Nor for anything under 1.14.3 and above 1.12.2. SO i try my luck with the regular installer, I think everything is going great, I've already got java and have had the updated Java 8 the whole time. Then I go to open forge 1.14.3 and the same text box pops up every time. I have uninstalled Forge and Java on several occasions, used different browsers and nothing works. The text box pop up says as follows:

"Java installation Not Completed. Unable to install Java. There are errors in the following switches: "C:\Users\Otter\Desktop\forge-1.14.3-27.0.51-installer.jar";. Check that the commands are valid and try again."

I am not sure if this is a fault of my own, of Java's, or of Forge itself but I would love some light to be shined on this issue. Should I wait till the windows installer comes out or do I have to fix something with the installer, my computer, or Java. Thank you.

Ok so you know the user creates a fake product and creates bot accounts to say that he's not lying? this isn't the case, or at least i dont think so. I ran the file, and so far I haven't seen anything wrong with my PC. So, he's most likely not lying, just for comfirmation.

Thank you for bumping a year and a half old thread to vouch for one of my moderators who has thousands of posts on this forum and was recommending a tool that is widely known/used in the community to fix jar file associations...

I was scared that he was saying something wrong!
