Redownload Java manually. I know I had to do that to get Vassal to work correctly.

Will give it a shot!

What error are you getting?

Not getting an error at all, I can't even get it to start. I just clean "re-installed" Java and downloaded and extracted Cryodex again. Still nothing. Trust me, I know its not you, it is me and my computer (lack of) skills. On my old laptop I had zero issues. Extracted the .rar, and fired it up. Now, no dice. I can't even find what file to click to get it running.

Rar file? You should be downloading a jar file. Then you can double click the jar file and it just runs.

typo meant JAR. But still not doing it. I click it, goes to an open or save dialouge box, click open, goes back to that box again. No idea. Using explorer 11, Java 8, Cryodex 4...something just isn't adding up.

Right click, run as, java application.

You should be able to run by double clicking. I can't remember how you have to install Java to get that working.

If you don't figure it out by morning I'll have something better for you. Honestly I'm just too tired right now. We'll get you up and running though.

Ok, I will try to figure it out, worse comes to worse I will get one of my computer genius buddies on it tomorrow, thanks for the assist none the less
