title: I Cant get a .jar file to run after being double clicked on windows 7
body: <p>i have tried several things so far, i have used a .bat file to run it, and it opens up the command prompt, but closes right after opening. i have a manifest.txt file already created along with the .jar. If i type -java -jar DesktopApplicationRunner.jar in a command windows that is already up it will run the program.</p>
  
  <p>my .bat currently says:
  -java -jar DesktopApplicationRunner.jar</p>
