Just trying FAR on my update-to-date but old (2011) Windows 10 PC and get an error message on opening the .exe that says the required JRE is missing or corrupted. java -version shows:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>java -version
java version "1.8.0_271"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_271-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.271-b09, mixed mode)

    Hi Neil,
    thank you for reporting this issue. What happens if you run the .bat file that comes with FAR from the windows command line (CMD)? Does it work? If not, please post the errors you get here.
    Best regards,
    Olivier

    Hi Olivier

    I have gone back a version (2.02) and downgraded java to 1.6 (that was hard to find!). That works. I’ll upgrade both tomorrow and let you know what happens. It’s late here (Denmark).

    Thanks

    Neil

    Removed JRE 1.6
    Installed JRE 1.8
    v2.03 far.exe fails with error message "Get Java 6 ..."
    v2.03 far.bat works.

    So I can use it with the far.bat file until you compile a new .exe. Thank-you
    HTH

    All right, thanks for telling. 2.0.3 was supposed to fix that problem, doesn't seem to work out :(

    BTW: It might work with jre 11 as this combiniation works for me. Though it would be odd if it would work for 11 but not for 8. I'll check that.

    Hey, just a non-tech person here. Wondering why this has not been fixed yet? Seems like if you're going to upgrade an app it should work with current version required JRE.
