what is the name of the video ? you may have watched an outdated tutorial here is a little guide (for 1.15.2):

download java jdk 8_251 

and forge recommended sdk for 1.15.2

create a folder and inside of it create another folder (the name of this one shoud have no spaces and no capital letters) extract the sdk inside of this folder (make shure that the sdk folder is not inclueded but only the content)

then run cmd change the directory and read the readme file who explain which task you have to use

(if you use eclipse : you have to run gradlew genEclipseRuns then gradlew eclipse and open eclipse and set your first folder as a workspace)

Exactly what version of Minecraft are you trying to mod?

[The Fire Man]

I am trying to mod 1.12.2

1.12 is no longer supported on this forum.

Please update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.
