FileBot will not load

Post by rkichenama »

I updated a few days ago to the latest Windows version and now I am unable to launch FileBot. When I attempt to run the console, I get the following error

Code: Select all

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
java.lang.module.FindException: Module jdk.unsupported.desktop not found, required by javafx.swing
Windows 10 20H2
Java (build 1.8.0_281-b09) installed
used the windows_64bit installer package to install and subsequently repair. No change.

[Solved?]

I downloaded the portable version and overwrote the jar and jre folders and Filebot loads now.

Strange. The error message would indicate that older and newer application binaries where merged together. Make sure to fully uninstall and remove the C:/Program Files/FileBot folder before installing the new version if you encounter issues.
