I'm having trouble getting a NXT install working. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, and feel free to direct me to somewhere better, but all my searches have found only useless or outdated information.
I'm running Windows 8.1 Update. I've installed from
http://www.nxtcommunity.org/nxt-coin/install-nxt-software-your-computer, to my Program Files. When I run run.bat a console window pops up for a few seconds and then disappears again. Enough happens that I'm pretty sure it has found Java and is executing. I tried editing the batch file to add a pause at the end, but all that gives me is "Press any key to continue...". It seems Java is running in a different console window to the batch file.
Also, when I navigate to
https://127.0.0.1:7875 in Firefox, NoScript has a hissy fit. When I click Options, it shows me an ABE (Applications Boundaries Enforcer) panel. I'd rather not disable ABE or NoScript entirely. I have no idea what I'm supposed to click to enable NXT only.
I have to say, my first impressions of NXT are very poor. Even the suggestion I found to edit the run.bat was hard, as Notepad refuses to save it. I had to save it to a different directory, and then move it to the right place manually.
