Hello,
So I recently installed Java 10 and cannot revert back to older versions of Java as a workaround, I am stuck with Java 10.0.2. I am running Windows 10.
When I double click the shortcut/the jar executable nothing happens.
HD6 worked on my previous version, which I believe was Java 9. I have downloaded and ran "jarfix.exe" and nothing changed. The file is currently being opened with "Java(TM) Platform SE Binary", this is what was used with the previous version of java as far as I am aware.
In another thread I saw a solution using the following command lines:
Input: ftype | find "jarfile"
Output: jarfile="C:\Program Files\Java\jre-10.0.2\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*
Input: ftype jarfile="C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*
Output: Access is denied.
Error occurred while processing: jarfile.
I tried the above command line but changed it from "jre7" to "jre-10.0.2" with the same output.
I have also tried using the command line to run the program itself using java -jar HD6.jar. The command prompt ran without issues and spit out a blank line C:\Users\YungL> so it ran without error but nothing else happened.
I have also tried uninstalling all previous versions of java and redownloading just Java 10.0.2, no success.
I'm pretty thoroughly at a loss on what to do from here. To clarify, I tried the command line prompts before I downloaded and ran "jarfix.exe".
