Still can't start OruxMapsDesktop

Hi;

1.-check if you have a correct java installation:
http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp

or
http://java.com/en/download/

2.-uncompress OruxMapsDesktop.zip. IMPORTANT, do not uncompress OruxMapsDesktop.jar file
This is how you must see the content of the new OruxMapsDesktop folder:




3.-execute OruxMapsDesktop.bat

Hi,

Thank you for the answer but my question is about where, in what directory, i have to unzip the download.
I found c:\program files\java\jre6\lib with in it a number of other files
Is this the lib directory you mean? I don't see an oruxmaps directory.

I copied all the unzipped files into that lib directory under the existing files.
still the same result: the cmd window and in 1 second a lot of commandlines, too fast to read

I installed the latest version of Java.

Sorry for the trouble, it's working now. I didn't use winzip in the right way. Now there is the directorystructure you mean.
Thanks again,
Hanne
