WinRun4j - Java launcher [discontinued]
Posted: Mon Jan 30, 2012 8:19 am
I just found out about this app today and I was wondering if anyone knows a little bit more about it:
I don't know much about Java and I don't understand what this app does exactly.
Is this app of any use to us?
http://winrun4j.sourceforge.net/WinRun4j is a java launcher for windows. It is an alternative to javaw.exe and provides the following benefits:
