@Emma666 Thanks for your report.
Are you running a 64-bit or 32-bit OS? Are you running the 64-bit or 32-bit version of Processing?

Could you go back and see if earlier versions of the software start up for you?

[EmmaW87]

64bit, I tried to use processing2.0(Iused it last year), but it comes up with another problem,"it requires a 1.6 compliant jvm", I have no idea what should.I do now? Shall I use windows10? then the problem can be solved? Thanks ?取 Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/ghei36>

@Emma666 Try those versions:
https://github.com/processing/processing/releases/tag/processing-0256-3.2.4
https://github.com/processing/processing/releases/tag/processing-0248-3.0.2
And please report back if any of those work!

You are running a 64-bit version of Windows 8? (Just checking)

[EmmaW87]

Hi， Thanks. None of those versions work on my computer. My computer is 64bit Windows8.

Hi , I just reinstalled Java7, and Processing2.2 works, all the other versions couldnot work with this java version. But at least I can start my job now although using the old version, hope my information can help you to improve the Processing Tech, Many thanks for your efforts.

@Emma666 Thanks for your message. Processing 2.2 is very old, though...

You could try installing Processing 3.3 into a path that doesn't contain spaces, or extended (non-"Western") characters. Like C:\Processing\. Does this help?
