Minecraft Jar Not Marked As Executable

From Trade Britannica
Jump to: navigation, search

I tried several tutorials to learn how to install, but they did not work. I do everything correctly but then i get this:



The file '/home/mike/Downloads/minecraft.jar' is not marked as executable. It may be unsafe to run if this file was downloaded from an untrusted source. You can find more information about the executable part.



I tried to use the Sun java runtime 6 with minecraft.jar but it wouldn't work. Any help would be appreciated!



It doesn't seem to work. The box "mark as executable" unchecks as I click it - user3549183 Jun 8, 2014 at 17:46

Right-click the minecraft.jar hit properties and then execute file as a programme. This works for me and for others. This should likely get your minecraft working.
