The Windows install instructions seem incredibly outdated.
It should look like this:
Windows
1. Download and install the latest BiglyBT release (
https://www.biglybt.com/download/).
2. Download the latest Java JDK GA release Zip file (
http://jdk.java.net/13/).
3. BACK UP YOUR TORRENT LIST! IT IS LIKELY YOU WILL LOSE IT!
4. Extract the hack files using 7-Zip (7-Zip Download) or equivalent to %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT) and overwrite ALL files.
5. Delete the "jre" folder in %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT).
6. Open the OpenJDK archive downloaded in step 2 and extract the "jdk-XX" folder to the BiglyBT folder %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT).
7. Rename the extracted "jdk-XX" folder to "jre".
8. Run Notepad as Administrator and open %PROGRAMFILES%\BiglyBT\BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions (C:\Program Files\BiglyBT\BiglyBT.exe.vmoptions), append the following line:
NOTE: If you want to run BiglyBT-console.exe perform step 8 but instead create file "BiglyBT-console.exe.vmoptions"
Code:
--patch-module=java.base=ghostfucker_utils.jar
--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.
www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED
9. Run BiglyBT and Enjoy!
And remove the warning:
"Please note the change of instructions for Java 11. For Java 11 please remove the "--add-exports=java.xml.bind" line from the vmoptions file and use the OpenJDK binaries for Windows and macOS."
from your post as there currently is no
"--add-exports=java.xml.bind" line in your install instruction
Or do you mean the one that says:
"--add-exports=java.base/sun.net.www.protocol=ALL-UNNAMED" ?
