Won't complete setup

Status

Issue description

So whenever I try to download and launch MCreator I am unable to complete the setup. I have a 64 bit computer and have downloaded the 64 bit version. But MCreator just gets stuck at the 2nd part of the set up process. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This is normal, just wait until it completes. If it does not, try to restart the computer and try again. If this does not help, you might not have enough RAM on your computer or MCreator does not have enough RAM assigned.
