Installing and running

JDownZ needs Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6.0 or higher for running.

Linux

For Linux the recommended download option is the self-extracting (non-rpm) binary file. Download and copy it to the location where you want the JRE to be installed. Then make the file executable and extract it using the following commands.

chmod +x <downloaded_file>
./<downloaded_file>

Now you would have the JRE directory. To run JDownZ, execute the JDownZ.jar file as below.

<jre_directory>/bin/java -jar JDownZ.jar

To make things easier, you can add <jre_directory>/bin to your PATH or associate .jar files to <jre_directory>/bin/java -jar in your file manager.

Windows

Run the installer to install the latest JRE. Double-click on JDownZ.jar file.

Note: To install JRE on Windows, you need administrative privileges.
