Minimwatch Installation Failure - Mescalito - 16-02-2016 19:31
I have a problem.
I recently had to re-install Windows 10.
When trying to reinstall Minimwatch, the progress bar gets about a third of the way along & a window opens & informs me I have successfully installed Minimwatch.
However when I click the finish button (having ticked the "Launch Minimwatch" tickbox), all that happens is that a WinRAR page opens displaying a load of Minimwatch related files.
I have tried unpacking the files to a newly created folder called Minimwatch, but I have no clue as to how to proceed from there, as there does not appear to be any .exe files unpacked.
Can anyone help?

You need to open the WinRAR settings page and remove .jar from the list of filetypes associated with WinRAR. After you do this, double-clicking the MinimWatch launch icon should run the MinimWatch .jar file.
You should not unpack the MinimWatch .jar file.

You should not unpack the MinimWatch .jar file.
I actually unistalled WinRAR from my machine.
Now, the installation process opens Photoshop CS5!
I uninstalled CS5, & still the installation fails, but this time an error window opens up with the following message:
"Unable to execute file:
C\Program Files\Minimwatch\\lib\mmwatch.jar
Shell executeEx failed; code 2147221003
Application not found"
Help!!

Try uninstalling Java and then reinstalling Java.

That didn't work either

You can check the .jar file association by entering the commands:
assoc .jar
assoc jarfile
in a command prompt window. What is the output from these commands?

Hi,
I get:
assoc .jar -> .jar=jarfile
assoc jarfile -> jarfile = Executable Jar File

This all looks good. if you open Default Programs in Control Panel, then select 'Associate a file type or protocol with a program', what is in the Current Default column for the .jar extension?
