Trying to run projectlibre with the newest Java version gets me the following and exits:
>java -Xms128m -Xmx768m -jar projectlibre.jar
opts:
ProjectLibre Version: 1.9.8 local version 1.9.8 updated=false java version=24.0.2
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Setting a Security Manager is not supported

Workaround: Install Java SE 23 development kit from the java archive and running:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-23\bin\java.exe" -Xms128m -Xmx768m -jar projectlibre.jar
ProjectLibre's new release only runs on the new macOS with M silicon. It does not run with the x86 older chips. Apple has discontinued support as well. If you need to run on an older Mac then go to Files here and download version 1.9.3
