(Single player) launcher issue
Every time I try to run the launcher a it says it cannot find java.exe . And says to make sure I typed it in right. I have tried re-downloading and extracting the file. But this doesn't seem to change anything. Am I missing something obvious or do I need to do something complicated to fix this?

Re: (Single player) launcher issue
did you extract the archive before trying to run it, or are you running it from in the zip?

Which launcher? Saradomin or the one directly from 2009scape.org?FlatStanle wrote: ↑Fri Sep 23, 2022 1:28 am Every time I try to run the launcher a it says it cannot find java.exe .

You need java to play RuneScape. RuneScape is a Java game.

Re: (Single player) launcher issue
I think that might be it. How to I change the path, so I can get rid of the space. It doesn't ask for the path when I run the executable
