I downloaded the newest version of Java. 

Use Java 8 with forge, I do not believe it is compatible with newer versions.

Im having a similar issue where i double click the batch file and it opens for a second then closes 

The original post has nothing to do with a batch file, you should create your own thread with more information (i.e. contents of said batch file)

the problem is, the file has spaces in it, so you should use

java -jar "forge-1.15.2-31.1.16-installer (1).jar"

if you dont use it, you requesting:

  1. execute program called java
  2. call java with first argument: -jar
  3. call java with second argument: forge-1.15.2-31.1.16-installer
  4. call java with third argument: (1).jar

But you want to:

  1. execute program called java
  2. call java with first argument: -jar
  3. call java with second argument: "forge-1.15.2-31.1.16-installer (1).jar"

Because spaces are used as parameter seperation in general (cmd, powershell, bash, whatever) if a path or filename contains a space or special characters, enclose them with quotes.

 

If you are in the correct folder, you only need to write java -jar "forge- and can press TAB for autocomplete, but dont miss the closing " at the end
