This is pointless unless there is some specific reason to believe it
would help.

Nothing comes up at all

bump possible soloution

We can see from the log that the Module Manager is starting. My guess
is that the last run didn't close properly, and the mechanism which
prevents two Module Managers from running at once is stopping a second
one from being displayed.

Does your friend see the MM if he tries to start VASSAL after rebooting?

He has already tried that its not running when he goes to execute it nothing happens

Already tried what? Has he verified (using the Task Manager) that there
is no Java process running when he starts VASSAL?

Can you attach to the java process with jvisualvm or jdb and give me
some idea of what it's doing?

[Grimcrimm]

we're working on getting you the debug or virtual machine thing right now

What happens is he will run the .exe and then nothing happens

All the paths seem to be right but NOTHING happens
