The problem is that you are executing the jar with that first command.

Delete the whole first part of what you have there, and get rid of the quotes

 

*edit: I was thinking that "enter command" was part of your command prompt, or did you actually type that?

I can't move anything directly into the users part of my computer, since I don't have access to that edit that area. Instead, I moved it into my user (mendezx18)

Edit what area? Where it says "Enter Command"? If it says that as soon as the window opens up, someone just customized the cmd prompt to say that.

Provided that is the case, then it's not important, ignore it.

BUT

You are typing, at the very least, 2 separate commands into that commandline, using quotes where you shouldn't. The first is executing the installer jar, with the default java, and the second, well, more than likely being passed as an ignored parameter to the first command.

 

Do not type the path/name of the forge jar file unless it is after -jar

 

And don't use quotes.

no the enter command part was already there lol.  So do I still delete the first part?

Yes, and if it doesn't work, post a screenshot of that window again.

what is the code you want me to put, because the original thing you said about opening the command prompt/power shell from file explorer didn't appear for me, so I just searched up a way to do it? Can you tell me a line of code/s you want me to input?

You will need to specify the full path to your installed java. So if you extracted the openjdk zip into C:\Users\Bob and did not change any of the folder names, you would need to type in C:\Users\Bob\jdk8u252-b09-jre\bin\java.exe -jar forge_installer-press-tab-to-complete

(after typing forge, hitting tab should complete the filename for you, you can use tab completion when typing in the path to java as well.)
