Global Moderator meso dizzy Posted May 31, 2022 Global Moderator Share Posted May 31, 2022 Hello @Hayes Againhopefully this will work for you.  Go to Settings > Linux (Beta) > Install Linux Once Linux is downloaded, search "Terminal" in the launcher located in the bottom left corner of the screen and open it. In the terminal, type "sudo apt install default-jdk" (no quotation marks) and press enter. This installs Java onto Linux, letting it read Java and .jar files. Download the Jar launcher for Zaros Once your launcher is downloaded, go to My Files > Downloads. Locate the launcher's files, and move each one to My Files > Linux Files. This allows Linux to access these files. Open terminal back up. Now, type in "java -jar [filename]" (e.g, if you installed RuneLite, you would type in "java -jar RuneLite.jar"). This should launch OSRS. Any time you want to open RuneScape, just type in "java -jar [filename]" into the Linux terminal and it will launch. Keep in mind, this command can only run jar files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator meso dizzy Posted May 31, 2022 Global Moderator Share Posted May 31, 2022 If that doesn't work you can try using bluestacks on your chromebook and downloading the zaros mobile app on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
