I am unable to run the .jar file, nothing happens after clicking on executable jar files?

Make sure that Java is installed on your computer. You can install Java from here (https://www.java.com/en/download/). If Java is already installed and still clicking on the .jar file result in nothing (sometimes one may see a black screen for a moment). This may happen due to an issue with jar association on Windows. This issue can be solved using this tool (http://johann.loefflmann.net/en/software/jarfix/index.html).

Download and run this tool once and then try running any .jar file again.

The software is showing an error reading an input file. What are the possible reasons?

Error in reading an input file usually occurs when there is some issue with the input file format such as missing descriptor values, presence of non-numerical values in descriptor columns (listed below), or when the input file format is not followed properly, etc. Always check the sample input files in the 'Data' folder to confirm that your input file is properly prepared or not. Some possible non-numerical values (examples) that are usually present in the descriptor columns, which creates the issue in reading the input file by the software:

1) 0.12 E-5 (*Possible Solution: Replace it with 0.0000012)

2) NaN (*Possible Solution: Remove this descriptor)

3) NA (*Possible Solution: Remove this descriptor)

4) - (*Possible Solution: Remove this descriptor)

5) SMILES notation (*Possible Solution: Remove this column from the input file), etc.

How to run the software using command prompt (Windows)?

Follow these steps to run the jar file using the command prompt:

1) run 'Command prompt' in windows. For example, type 'command prompt' in the search option in windows and click on the app.

2) Using the 'cd' command go to the software folder, where the jar file is present, for example, cd D:\path\...\SoftwareFolder\ and press enter.

3)Type this command 'java -jar <jar-file-name>.jar' and press enter.
