Try running jar fix
https://johann.loefflmann.net/en/software/jarfix/index.html

i have just done this and i get this new message come up when i try to open osbot saying. 'you are currently running version 17.0.1 of java, which is unsupported.

If you don't need Java 17 then uninstall it and download Java 8
https://java.com/

is that link for java 8?

because i just downloaded java from that link and i get the same message when opening osbot

Either you need to remove Java 17, try running jar fix again and see if it adjusts everything to Java 8, open with command prompt using Java 8 directory, or try right clicking open with and choosing Java 8.

yeah that sorted it thanks for your help
