[User feedback required] Can't start JDownloader

I've been running JD for a few years without any issues. Two weeks ago it began to stop in the middle of a download, then for no apparent reason started up again and eventually completed the download. This went on intermittently for several weeks.

One day I cicked on the desktop shortcut, and nothing. Then I went to the folder and right clicked on Open on JD executable. Nothing.

I completely uninstalled, downloaded the latest version, re-installed and still nothing. The blue circle appears for a second then it stops. It never starts.

I updated Java, restarted, still nothing. Java version is 7 update 65

What is going on?

Win7 Ultimate 64bit

Hi,

If you are using JD 0.9.581, you should use Java 1.6. Java 1.7 / 1.8 is not compatible with that JD version. If you want to use Java 1.7 / 1.8 you should upgrade to JD2.

Greetings,
