final hatch
So I grabbed the new version today (first time trying the 2.0 one). First time I tried to run it I got the warning that I need Java 17, fair enough.
I installed the recommende java (the one it links you to) and now it just doesn't start. The .exe des literally nothing, running the .cmd opens a tertminal window for a split second but not long enough to read.
Java seems to be installed properly since running "java --version" gives me the 17.
Oddly it seems running it through java -jar <jar name> in the cmd does work.
So question is how do I fix the exe (which I assume uses the forge.cmd file)?
I haven'd edited the .cmd file.
If I run the .cmd file from the terminal I get this, which I think is the same if I run it by double-clicking it (as far as I can tell from the split-second).
The contents of the .cmd file are unchanged from what I got from the tar
Running by double-clicking the .jar doesn't work either.
Hmm, I can make the .cmd work by just removing the

--add-opens java.base/java.util.concurrent=ALL-UNNAMED
--add-opens java.base/java.net=ALL-UNNAMED
(which clearly isn't recognized looking at the error)
But that doesn't help with the exe, neither does making the same changes to the .command or .sh file.

```
--add-opens java.desktop...
yeah with my recent fix i removed the add-opens (they are not needed anymore with Manifest supporting it)

And what's the reason for the exe not working even with my fix?
I guess it has the launch command baked in somehow instead of relying on those files?
