Can't open .jar

[footballmaster1122]

Hey, all of my friends love Xmage and they play it all the time. Whenever I try to download it on windows ten, I get a .jar file. When I go to open it, it opens in Autodesk no matter what. Does anyone have any idea what to do?

You have a problem with your java installation or no java is installed on your system at all.

1) Open a command window.
2) Set the current directory to the directory the launcher jar file is located.
3) To start the launcher enter:
java -jar XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar
and push the enter key, that should start the launcher. (So you're fine).
4) Otherwise report the error message you get in the command window

It sats something like “unable to open xmagelauncher.3.08.jar”

Please post the exact message.

If it's this:
Error: Unable to access jarfile XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar

You probably did not set the directory correctly to the XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar file's directory.

That is the message I get. But to my knowledge, I set the directory correctly. I set it to C:\Users\snkat\Desktop\Mage Folder Do you have any pointers on what could be the problem?
