Whenever I try to run and install forge on my computer, it keeps giving me the error message of "this app cannot run on your computer." I do not know what to do about this. I just bought Minecraft today, and my friends really want me to play mo creatures with them. I am getting very frustrated and upset, it does this for every version of forge I try to install. I enjoy vanilla minecraft, but mods look so fun. If anyone knows what I can do to help this, please. 
I think my computer is windows 8, but I am not entirely sure.

Are you using Firefox? Did it by chance flag the file as "unsafe" and replace it with a completely empty file? If so, tell it to keep the file.

Yes, I am using Firefox. I tell it to keep file, but I don't know if it is actually. This is what the download looks like. Is this supposed to be it?

      Distinguish singleplayer vs. multiplayer

      By solitone · Posted 13 minutes ago

      From what I see in the examples I've found, proxies are basically used for preInitialization, Inizialization, and postInizialization tasks.    Here I've got an Item class, with method onItemRightClick() that should perform different things based on the game mode (multiplayer vs. singleplayer).   How would I take advantage of the sided proxies to refactor the following class? Should I have two classes, one for the client, the other for the dedicated server, and register the first class on the client, and the second on the dedicated server?   I'm confused and basically stuck.   public class ScriptItem extends Item { // [...] @Override public ActionResult<ItemStack> onItemRightClick(ItemStack stack, World world, EntityPlayer player, EnumHand hand) { // [...] String separator = getSeparator(); if (world.isRemote) { // client side if (!Minecraft.getMinecraft().isSingleplayer()) { // client talks to dedicated server (multiplayer game) String scriptName = nbtTagCompound.getString("scriptName"); ClientCommandHandler.instance.executeCommand(player, "/lpython " + "pythontool" + separator + scriptName); } } else { // server side if (!FMLCommonHandler.instance().getMinecraftServerInstance().isDedicatedServer()) { // server is integrated (singleplayer game) String scriptName = nbtTagCompound.getString("scriptName"); world.getMinecraftServer().getCommandManager().executeCommand(player, "/python " + "pythontool" + separator + scriptName); } } }

      Forge will not launch, crashes immediately

      By SeekingTanis · Posted 1 hour ago

      When  I try to launch forge, there are roughly 20 seconds when it might work and then the Minecraft launcher shows up saying that there was an unexpected issue and the game crashed. I can't seem to get a crash report and I don't know what to do!

      Gradle launches Minecraft, then hangs demanding open mods folder.

      By JMAS · Posted 1 hour ago

      UPDATE:  Apparently the problem is allowing IntelliJ to update to the latest version of Gradle (4.9), when the MDK build.gradle is set to "3.+".  By refusing to allow a fresh install of IntelliJ to upgrade Gradle the build process completed, genintellijRun completed, and Minecraft loaded. Please feel free to close this issue.
