JRE Folder for Portable

[mediocrenoob]

I've recently uninstalled Java thinking that the only reason I had it installed in the first place was for my browser to use. Now that Firefox and Chrome block it, I thought "there's really no reason to have this installed anymore" until I needed to rename some TV shows. I launch FileBot and it says I need Java 1.8 installed for it to work. I have the feeling that more and more people are uninstalling Java too so would it be possible for you to make FileBot look inside a "jre" folder in the FileBot folder that held all the necessary Java files for it to function and to not have to install Java for one small program? I like FileBot and I can't seem to find anything else like it to replace it but I also don't need Java for anything anymore, the other Java based programs I use either use its own jre folder or can be pointed to a folder that has the jre files.

You can purchase FileBot from the Windows Store. It'll include all dependencies and work out of the box.

I can't purchase it from the Windows Store since I don't have Windows 10. I'm fine with using the portable version and downloading the extra dependencies it needs but it's just the Java thing that bugs me. Just seems like support for a jre folder for the portable launcher to look in to find what it needs to run everything else would be a good feature to have.

You can write or own launcher, e.g. modifying filebot.cmd to use your own java binaries should be straightforward.

using the filebot.cmd that comes with it and changing the second line to start as "%~dp0jre\bin\javaw" makes it use its own jre folder and launches correctly. If your portable launcher is just a compiled batch file then I guess I figured out a better way.
