Trying to start Sikuli server opens FilZip window instead

Asked by DanielF

In order to speed the start and execution of Sikuli actions, when performing many sequential actions, I was advised (a year or two ago) to start the Sikuli 'server' first, using this command:
"C:\Program Files\SikuliX\sikulixide-2.0.4.jar" -s

That worked fine until some days ago, when instead of starting the server and allowing me to execute Sikuli actions, it simply opened a FilZip pane for sikulixide-2.0.4.jar. Here's a screen-shot to show what happens:

I'm running Win7Pro64. I can't think of any system or software changes that might have affected SikuliX.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

What is the default app setting for .jar files on your system?

It may be wrongly set to FilZip instead of Java
