Exilent currently works only with Java 8.
There can be several Java versions installed on a computer at the same time. When you double click a JAR file it will be executed on the Java version which is set as default.

In order to run Exilent you have to make sure you have Java 8 set as default.
Verify your default Java version
Open up a terminal where you can type commands (Windows: Start - Command Prompt, Mac: Finder - Terminal).
Type: java -version
The default Java version will be printed out (Java 8 181).
Set default Java version
On Windows installing any Java (JRE of JDK) should be set as default.
On Mac installing a JRE wont be set as default so you will have to install JDK.
