You can do this automatically with this link: http://www.jalview.org/services/launchApp?Version=Release&jvm-max-heap=2G > 1. I have 32-bit Java JRE v.1.8.0_101 on my Windows 10 x64 machine. OK. > 6.

None. Double-clicking on them returns no action at all. That's not surprising. The install anywhere version creates a Jalview.exe which you should run to launch the program. If the installation was successful (which it may not have been) then the runnable program should have the Jalview logo. > I cannot use the web-based version, because my FASTA files are large and I am running out of memory (I tried). As Mungo suggested - using the webstart + custom memory setting route is the way forward here. We're working on a smoother way of launching Jalview with specific memory settings, but for the moment, the launchApp URL is the easiest way. Let us know how you get on, Kauskik.
