Hey there Landon32,

Can you confirm which version of java you are using? You can do so by opening up a command prompt and typing "java -version". I am willing to bet (despite what you've claimed), that you aren't using the correct version of java.

I would uninstall *ALL* versions of java you have installed, via the control panel, then download, and install java 1.8 (java 8). Once that step is complete, please also do a Google search for "jarfix", and then run that.

Thanks,
Pyru

java version 1.8.0_161 i have uninstalled and re installed multiple times. different versions and 1.8 version.

Can you open a command prompt and type "java -jar /path/to/RSCE_Launcher.jar" (of course replace /path/to/ with the actual path the jar is) - Then please try to take note of the output.

Thanks,
Pyru

Unrecognized option: -jar/path/to/rsce_launcher.jar
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

Where /path/to/ you need to supply the actual path you have the launcher downloaded to. Please also ensure you have "java -jar"

As you see, I have my "RSCE_Launcher.jar" in my downloads folder, and that's the directory I'm in.

yeah multiple times. I just uninstalled again. would you be interested in teamviewing for me to see if u can resolve it? and so I can see what I'm doing wrong

first time this has ever happened. I think its because I'm not used to this windows 10.. Ive always been windows 7 on all computers except this laptop
