Homebrew I can't open Forwarder 3DS on my PC

[Jetbirb]

I installed Java, no matter how I try, I can't open forwarder 3DS on my pc, what can I do?I can't find no fix for this issue

When you say you can't open it what exactly is happening is it just not loading? Are you getting some kind of error?

For me it takes about 10 mins to load don't know why but have you waited to see if its just taking a while to load?

Black window, like the windows prompt command, and then it closes.Then I try to open it with a program but I can't find Java anywhere, and I installed it various times but I see nothing.There are no videos on Youtube about this issue

Never mind, all of sudden it worked and I don't know

In future, if you're running a jar file it is better to do the following

- Open Windows Explorer to the folder where the jar file is
- Type cmd in the address bar
- Type java -jar nameoffile.jar in the command prompt window and press enter

That way you'll see any output (like error messages) and can correct what's wrong, or use it to ask for help.

y'all should ask on the thread dedicated to the fowarder, similar questions have been answered countless times.
Make sure to update your Java, try to run it using a .bat file, disable antivirus, run as admin...

I think you want javaw.exe to be linked to the app.

Even after I have installed jdk 11.0 properly it is showing over here as java is not found internally

So for those having this problem. Do not just update Jave. Java has a lot of codependencies and older versions, even updated do not seem to work. Make sure to install the java that is required. Here is the download file that I aqquired that made my specific problem of the screen flashing and not opening stop.
