RE: Minimwatch not starting - MarcelZ - 05-06-2015 06:30
MinimWatch is now starting normally on my machine. This is how I fixed it:
Go to Start>MinimServer and right click MinimWatch. Select Properties from the menu.
Go to General TAB>Opens with and click Change
Click Browse and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_45\bin
Select javaw and click Open. Click OK
Hope this works for Hungryhalibut as well.

What was "Opens with" set to before you made this change?

It looked the same, I.e.: "Java™ Platform SE binary", but obviously it wasn't.

Hurrah! Marcel, you are a hero. Many thanks to you and of course to Simon for your help.

However if I go to Minimwatch via Windows Explorer the only think in lib is a folder called ohnet. There is no sign of mwatch.jar.
Is this the issue?
This is definitely not correct.
What files (if any) are in the folder named ohnet?
Is there a folder named "C:\Program Files\MinimWatch\lib"? If so, what does this contain?

Sorry Simon - you must have found my post before I edited it. My son, who is much cleverer than me, found the file. All is working. Many thanks!
