cant open client on macbook help pls

Recommended Posts

Regarding MacOSx users and the New Client:

Hit Command+Space and type in "Terminal" then open your terminal

Install HomeBrew on your machine

(this has been around for years and is safe to install) in your terminal type/paste:

$ /bin/bash -c “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)”

Use the newly installed package manager to install Java 11 then update it

in your terminal type/paste:

$ brew install java11

then this one

$ brew update

After installation and update, Symlink it

(no clue what this means or does, research if you feel uneasy about it)

sudo ln -sfn /usr/local/opt/openjdk@11/libexec/openjdk.jdk /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-11.jdk

I had to restart my machine for this to work, but it launched no problem after that

Note: You may have to remove the "$" from the first couple commands if they do not work For those searching: (mac, macos, macosx, new launcher, java11, can't open)
