Windows 10 OSB will not open

[dunclin]

I've installed jre 8 update 111, 172, and 262 and I've tried opening with all 3. I've tried the .bat file for each one aswell.  (I did rename the client to just osbot)

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_111\jre\bin\java.exe -jar "osbot.jar" 

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_172\jre\bin\java.exe -jar "osbot.jar"

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_172\bin\java.exe -jar "osbot.jar"

The client opened when i had the newest version of java but was unable to use it

Try 

java -jar "osbot.jar"

Are you getting any error or is osbot simply not opening?

Just not opening, a command prompt opens for a mllisecond and goes away when i try to use the jar file. As for the .bat file does nothing

Try opening a cmd and simply typing "java -version" to see if your system even recognizes your install. 
What version does it state? Seeing as you have several installed.

Glad you got it sorted out, and also posted the fix for others in the future
Which java version did you end up using?

u111, but I wouldn't be surprised if they all worked

Java versions can be a bit tricky sometimes. Your efforts with the different JRE updates and .bat files are commendable. I remember my early days here; it felt like decoding a secret language, right? Anyway, it's interesting that the client worked with the newest Java version but had usability issues. Computers, right? Such mysterious creatures! As for the windows 11 pro retail key, I stumbled upon that too when I was troubleshooting. It's like a hidden side quest in the tech world. If I may throw in my two cents, maybe the community can help pinpoint the issue with your client. Ah, the joys of online exploration!
