I've been having a lot of problems with this. I have all of the software I need as far as I know and the .jar file works flawless on windows. I go to open with on the file (which has execute as program enabled) and there is no open with java run time or openjdk. I tried to run it with run software and nothing happens. I've tried doing java -jar [jar file name] and I just get this:

I've literally downloaded almost every java package on the installer with the hopes something would work, but nope. Please tell me what I am missing installation wise or please tell me how I can open this .jar file with jre or openjdk. Thanks in advance.
