You are trying to run J64. The 601 release of J64 does not have a j.exe. Instead you run the GUI version of J64 with the Java front end. The install should have created a red J icon. This icon should run the Java 64bit runtime with the j.jar for J64. You need to install a Java 64bit runtime. This is not a standard part of vista64 and you will have to download and install it from the sun website. And you will probably have to edit the command line in the red J icon to refer to where you installed Java64.

The J602 release for Windows J64 will have a j.exe that provides a native windows 64bit front end to J. The first beta of this should be available in about a month.

1749 files are extracted from the j601c_win64.exe file but j.exe is not in
the list, perhaps because  *setup_j.exe *
failed.
As for core J, it seems ok, as jconsole.exe works fine.

As for the multiple listing, it was quite unintended, and I apologize for
the inconvenience.

Robert,

The J installer is really just a self-extracting ZIP archive.    If you
download and install winzip, you can right click the file
setup_j.exe  and extract it to the folder of your choice.  Then simply
double-click on j.exe.

As with any other application, you can right-click on j.exe, drag it to
your start menu, then select "create shortcut here", to
create a program icon.

I don't know enough about vista or 64 bit Oses to help further, except to
note that both the 32- and 64-bit flavors of J should
operate in your environment.  So if one won't work, try the other.

BTW you needn't post to multiple forums.  Most members subscribe to all
forums, so posting to just one will suffice.  The general
forum is designated (loosely) for installation issues (among other
things).  If you don't get a response, usually it's because no
one knows how to answer you (or, less frequently, we do, but the required
answer is prohibitively long and involved).
