Do you want to run a java game from your mobile phone on your computer? But this is a *.jar file. It is not an executable file (program) of Windows and the operating system simply does not open it.
Instructions
Step 1
Install a mobile phone emulator program on your computer. This is a program that behaves in relation to a jar file in exactly the same way as a mobile phone. And the jar file does not even "guess" that it is being executed on a PC. There are many similar programs. But, however, while most of them work reliably under Windows XP, and under Windows 7, unfortunately, not always. But this is temporary. Programs are improved, errors are eliminated.
Step 2
One such program is Sjboy. You can download it, for example, here: https://mobilux.info/xf/sjboy_rus.zip. After unpacking the archive, the program is ready to work, no installation is required. Experience shows that most programs for mobile phones are successfully launched with its help
Step 3
To run the *.jar file, you just need to drag and drop this file onto the Sjboy program icon. This method works reliably. But with the traditional method of processing - first launching the program, and then opening the *.jar file through the "file" menu, there are failures.
Step 4
But there are currently no universal emulators. If some *.jar program stubbornly does not want to run normally in some emulator, and you cannot do without it, then try to choose another one for it. Here are some more examples of similar software:
- KEmulator Lite - Russian version of the program
- Minisoyo
- MidpX Emulator
- MicroEmulator
Step 5
When choosing an emulator, keep in mind the following: some emulators work not with jar files, but with jad files. They do not have a program, but only information about where to download the program and how to work with it. This is inconvenient compared to working directly with jar files. If you already have a ready-made java file on your computer, you will first have to convert it into a jad file using some special program, for example, JADGenerator.
