Jar file is working, but exe file is showing error "This application requires a Java Runtime Environment 1.8 (64-bit)"

[bessarabov]

I'm starting jar file from windows command line an it works fine. (I'm using a bat file with the command like java -Dbroker="..." ... -jar winthing-1.4.2.jar)

But I would prefer to use winthing-1.4.2.exe file. But when I double click it in the exploer

This application requires a Java Runtime Environment 1.8 (64-bit)

I think that I have JRE installed (the the jar file work fine when running from command line), but the .exe file does not. I've read the docs in this repo, but I can't find the answer.

Can you please explain what should be done to make exe file work.
