Ok. Scratch the last reply. I tried a few more times and it brought up the installer. So I ran it. A log (text file) was created called installer_log.log. I opened it and it was completely blank.

Did it just like you said. At least I think I did.

Error: unable to access jarfile

Nope.

In my downloads folder.

Attempted to follow a video you posted on a similar thread. I do not have the log created when I run the installer and unfortunately when I run it, I cannot do a simple copy and paste of it either. I have run the installer more times than I can count. There should be numerous logs, but not a single one has been created.

No the launcher was not running and I have restarted multiple times. I have even tried older versions with the matching minecraft version and still nothing. This is frustrating beyond words.

Do you want the versions list on the launcher or from the appdata/.minecraft folder?

Before you ask, yes. Yes I have scrolled all the way to the bottom of the release drop down menu. No forge option is there. It is not in my versions folder either. Nor is it an option in the launcher at all. I am using Windows 10. I have received the message numerous times that it has been successfully installed, but it is still not showing up in the profile. Someone please help me out.
