#21 Robocode not working with Windows 8

Robocode is able to run under Windows 8. In fact, all version 1.8.x.x versions have been developed under Windows 8 Professional x64 on my PC. ;-)

When nothing happens when you click the Robocode icon, something IS wrong with your Java installation, as starting up Robocode is done directly through Java.

Make sure that you have a JDK 6 or 7 installed (Java Developer Kit), and that you have set up the %JAVA_HOME% environment variable correct, and added a path to %JAVA_HOME%\bin to you %PATH% as well. Then Robocode will for sure run. :-)

Robocode not working with Windows 8

I am trying to install Robocode but it is not opening. I have a Windows 8 OS. I made sure Java's path is right - it is pointed towards the bin. But when I click on the Robocode icon, it doesn't load. What is my next step?
