  • 0

Running a .jar file in a command line works fine, but i am not able to run any .jar file by double clicking on my Windows 7 (64). It seems nothing happens after the double click.

I tried the ftype hint, no success:

ftype jarfile="C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*

I reinstalled the JDK 7 64-bit, no success.

Any idea?

    What is listed in right-click-> Open With ?
    Is some other program listed as the default program ? Is a Java Runtime listed ? If a Java Runtime is listed, you can open with it, and make it the default program to run with.

    ie,

    Right Click ->  Properties -> Change -> C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe
