Minecraft forge 1.12.2 libraries will not download

[Bladen XX 0]

I recently have gotten this error when I have had forge downloaded in the past and I have no clue what caused it and I need assistance with it. Any idea on what is happening

I had followed these guidelines and they had not worked, it tells me it does not recognize Java as a internal or external command

Do you have Java installed?

Your Java is not properly installed, as it seems to be unavailable from the command line. Specify the full path to the Java executable instead of just using java.

How do i do that?

 

[diesieben07 6671]

I am not sure what else to say. Use the full path (e.g. "C:\Program Files\Java\...\bin\java.exe" instead of just java.

I've done this and it cannot find or load the .net.preferIPv4Stack

Show exactly what you did and show the exact output.

Please make sure you’re using cmd and not powershell when running the command, Powershell has slightly different command syntax.

unfortunately i was and the CMD program says it is unable to access the jarfile for the forge now

You need to include the .jar extension when using the java command.

and use CMD, the command does not work in powershell, you can open a cmd prompt in powershell by typing cmd.

I am now using cmd and it is not able to access the forge jarfile

Is the forge installer in your steam library? (If so, why?)

and did you include the ".jar" at the end of the installer name?

[Bladen XX 0]

no it is in the file i crated to keep track of all my games...

I need to rename it really, but it is steam games mostly

and yes and now it says that it cannot this version on it

Is your Operating System 32 or 64 bit?

64 bit, and i had forge downloaded before, but my minecraft wouldn't even load, so i had fixed that and this is now happening

I honestly can't think of a reason that message would pop up in this case.

Is there a way to manually download these jarfiles and place them within the .minecraft folder

I have done it this way for some of them and i no longer have them pop up and when i go into the folders in the org file, I don't even have the scala jarfiles at all

Can I just have you confirm the URLs you have gotten Java and Forge from?

Sure, here:

Forge: https://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/index_1.12.2.html

Java: https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp (I had downloaded the offline 64 bit version)

[DaemonUmbra 356]

And that message that the app can't run showed up multiple times it wasn't just a fluke, right?
