I try to install Minecraft Forge 1.12.2 and it gets stuck at that screen

help

1.12 is no longer supported on this forum due to age.

Please update to a modern version to receive support here.

 

More information on supported versions can be found in the LTS link at the top of every page.

oh...

but is there an alternative to installing minecraft forge 1.12.2 without errors?

like what does the universal do?

I honestly do not know, I never had problems when I used 1.12, but I am on the current 1.15.2 now.

You should just rip off the bandaid and update
