Error installing Netbean in Windows 8 - netbeans

I have tried everything possible to install Netbean 7.3.1 on my Windows 8 OS supporting laptop. However, it was not going through from here https://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html.
This is the message I got after downloading all the software from mentioned link when tried to install for each download:
CRITICAll nullnull
I downloaded JDK (Name of the file: jdk-7u25-nb-7_3_1-windows-x64) and when I tried installing JDK I got an error says:
cannot find bundled JVM to run installer
Please can anyone share step-by-step instructions?

Open command prompt in the directory where your netbeans setup file is located. (to open cmd prompt, press shift and right click anywhere in the directory window and hit 'open command prompt here')
Now type the following command in command prompt
netbeans-8.0-windows.exe --tempdir C:\Temp --userdir C:\NBI
hit enter.

This is apparently a bug, though not in netbeans. Check out comments 9 and 10 for a possible work-around.

How to get NetBeans 12.0 to launch on Mac (MAC OS 11.0 beta / Big Sur)

On Mac (Big Sur) when I click on the Netbeans 12 icon in the doc it bounces briefly then fails to launch Netbeans.
The answer helped me launch Netbeans from the terminal. I added this change to make my dock icon launch Netbeans like before.
I changed the Netbeans config file to make it launch with the Java path:
Like the previous post indicates find your JDK path with this command in the Terminal
/usr/libexec/java_home -v '1.7*'
Now add this path to the Netbeans conf file. To do this:
right click on the Netbeans icon in the dock and select Open in Finder
in the smaller icon it shows right click again and select Show sources
find the netbeans.conf file in folder Resources/NetBeans/netbeans/etc/netbeans.conf
open this netbeans.conf file with a TextEditor or similar and find the line
#netbeans_jdkhome="/path/to/jdk"
Uncomment this line and change it for your path (the one you found in point 1)
something like
netbeans_jdkhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-15.jdk/Contents/Home"
Save the netbeans.conf file and try and launch from the Dock icon
If you right click on the icon in the dock --> Options --> Show in Finder the operating system will show you where 'Apache Netbeans 12.0' is located.
Highlight 'Apache Netbeans 12.0' then right-click and choose 'Show Package Contents', then you can find a shortcut that launches Netbeans (Contents/MacOS/netbeans).
If you double-click to launch netbeans you'll be presented with the following reason why it fails to load.
/Applications/NetBeans/Apache\ NetBeans\ 12.0.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/netbeans/bin/netbeans ; exit;
rob#Robs-MBP-2015 ~ % /Applications/NetBeans/Apache\ NetBeans\ 12.0.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/netbeans/bin/netbeans ; exit;
The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to locate a Java Runtime that supports (null).
Please visit http://www.java.com for information on installing Java.
Cannot find java. Please use the --jdkhome switch.
Credit goes to How can I change Mac OS's default Java VM returned from /usr/libexec/java_home for providing the following step to determine what the JDK path is...
/usr/libexec/java_home -v '1.7*'
Then you can type the following (adjust for your path and version required)
export JAVA_HOME="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-13.0.2.jdk/Contents/Home"
However that didn't seem to do the trick for me (I also tried JDK_HOME), so instead from a Terminal window type the command to launch Netbeans but include the --jdkhome to your Java home folder, e.g.
/Applications/NetBeans/Apache\ NetBeans\ 12.0.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/netbeans/bin/netbeans --jdkhome /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-13.0.2.jdk/Contents/Home
Now I have Netbeans launching again. I'm not quite sure why the JAVA_HOME doesn't resolve this, but hopefully in the meantime anyone unable to launch Netbeans can at least use this workaround.
I've also found this How to run a shell script in OS X by double-clicking? useful to ensure I can double-click on the shell script to run it from a shortcut on my desktop.
For some reason, some Netbeans versions for Mac OS do not detect the JDK contained in JRE. For proper installation and running the application,you must have Java for Mac OS installed previously.

I had the same issue after upgrading to macOS Big Sur from Mojave.
Before running commands in terminal, you could just try to reinstall Java for Mac OS X :

It solves my issue. I am now able to launch NetBeans 12.1

Netbeans: how to open an command line on Windows

Netbeans has a terminal window but it requires cygwin to be installed. Since I can't install cygwin (it requires admin permission), is there a way to open a Windows command line prompt(cmd) inside Netbeans?
Cygwin does need to be installed for NetBeans to have a Terminal window, and by default administrator rights are required to install it. However you can override that default requirement using the --no-admin argument when you install it.
See section 2.4 of the Cygwin FAQs:
2.4.
Can I install Cygwin without administrator rights?
Yes. The default installation requests administrator rights because
this allows to set up the Cygwin environment so that all users can
start a Cygwin shell out of the box. However, if you don't have
administrator rights for your machine, and the admins don't want to
install it for you, you can install Cygwin just for yourself by
downloading setup-x86.exe (for a 32 bit install) or setup-x86_64.exe
(for a 64 bit install) and then start it from the command line or via
the "Run..." dialog from the start menu using the --no-admin option,
for instance:
setup-x86.exe --no-admin
(While this is an answer, I am unfortunately not in a position to verify that it actually works.)
Make sure your Netbeans is closed while installing the Cygwin plugin, preferably download the . msi file for your PC's architecture(32 or 64 bits).
Thereafter Click on the tools bar above then you'll seen open in Terminal that should provide a terminal at the bottom of your Netbeans program.
Most importantly ensure your Netbeans is closed during installation.

vscode is not lauching for me on windows 7

I downloaded the latest ZIP file of VSCode for windows from VSCode website.
Unzipped it and tried running the Code.exe from it. It does nothing no crashing message juts output nothing.
I tried running Code.exe from command prompt [after CD to the directory where I have unzipped it], nothing happens, no out put.
Then I did some googling to do more troubleshooting and found out I need to run Code.exe or bin\code.cmd with --help and --verbose command.
No output on command line.
I am totally confused and don't know how do I make VScode work on my windows 7 machine or how do I troubleshoot why its not working.
I have appropriate .Net Framework installed [the one suggested by the VSCode website].
I have also tried installer , with all above debugging steps , same outcome as above.
I checked the code.exe in task manager to see if its running in background, nothing in there too.
What do I do ?
Check if the process is running in Task Manager.
Check for "code.exe". If it is running, then end all instances, and try again.
Otherwise, try opening event log, in Application or System. Look for errors or warnings which may have been logged and give some insight into why Code didn't open.
So guys seems like new version of VSCode has this problem.
Try downloading an older version of VSCode and do not upgrade it once its installed.
After I installed : V 1.18.1 , its working fine.

Can't run eclipse on netbook MSi wind! HELP

I just got this MSI wind netbook and tried to run eclipse on it. I installed JDK6 on the netbook already. Whenever I open eclipse there is nothing show up on the screen except a "warning sound" that alerts. What is the problem here?
ps.I just started learning java.
Most likely the Eclipse starter program can't find where you installed Java. Since Eclipse is a Java program, it needs a JRE installed (comes with the JDK typically) to run. Assuming you're running Windows on your MSI Wind, check to make sure the java executable is on your path in your computer environment settings (windows key + printscreen button, or windows key + pause button are the shortcuts to open the computer properties dialog if I remember correctly. Then go to advanced).
You can test if java is on the path by opening a cmd.exe shell window and typing 'java'. If it says it cannot find java, then you need to fix the path.
See this link for additional troubleshooting details: http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t99010.html
You could try reinstalling the JDK. Perhaps having it on a different disk than the default (D: versus C:) is causing some trouble? It certainly isn't a problem with the hardware, I'm running Eclipse on Windows on an MSI Wind.
Use "Add/Remove programs" in the control panel to remove the java versions you have installed.
Then visit "java.com" and use it to install Java, and verify that it is working. You do not need more than that to use Eclipse.
