Does JD2 still require Java to run?

As far as I know JD is a java application itself, not just relying on java on some of it's functions.

I have JD 2 and it does not say it's beta so the beta stage of JD 2 has actually passed already. They just haven't updated their website, I think.

Newer version. I think there is no point of having multiple versions, just the latest stable release.

Is this a valid candidate?

Verysilent works only if the setup file is also run in compatibility mode (tick Windows 8 or 7). Maybe this combination is the way how Ninite does it.

Oh now I got it.

You were trying to use "verysilent"-switch(?) That does not work but silent works.

Just downloaded it here: https://go.skype.com/windows.desktop.download

And saved it into desktop, run a command via cmd (as admin):

C:\Users\'My user name'\Desktop\Skype-8.17.0.2.exe /silent

And that's it.

Well if normal Windows commands work on it I see no reason why not to support it.

I tried and noticed that v. 8 Skype desktop version can be installed on Win 10 if it's run as silent.

"Not supported" means in this case that if you download and install it regularly, it tells that you have to install it through MS Store and stops. But if it's run as silent, then it installs normally.

Your dear competitor Ninite also supports v.8 desktop installation on Win 10.

Oh the problem was on Microsoft side. This thread is not relevant anymore. I checked Pmp's release log for v. 4.0.0.9.

Version 4.0.0.9 still bears this issue. But not on 64-bit machines, just on 32-bit.

I confirm Firefox and Java 8. Thank you! 4.0.0.9 works.

I don't know which version do you refer to but at least on 4.0.0.8 this issue is not fixed yet (I tested).

I also tried those Java runtimes as Kelemvor mentioned and they are having the same issue.

Hello! I have Windows 10 x64 and with version 4.0.0.8 of Pmp, Skype is not being detected as installed even though I have it installed.

It's of course possible that this bug has been before 4.0.0.8 but during this version I happened to notice it.

No, unfortunately.

Not fixed yet. I hope it will be soon
