Difficulty in opening downloaded stringApp.jar file

Hello,

I installed Cytoscape 3.7.1. Now, I want to add stringApp plugin into Cytoscape. From Cytoscape App Store, I could download stringApp plugin (Version 1.4.1 / Works with Cytoscape 3.6). But, the downloaded stringApp.jar file dose not open. I tried double click and also single click on this jar file. But, nothing happen. Java 8 is also installed on my windows.

Would you please advice me that how can I open and then install stringApp.jar file?

Thank you very much.

Thanks Devon, I exactly followed the instructions for adding plugins, but, again it did not work.

An alternative to what Devon mentioned is to use the Cytoscape App Manager and install stringApp from there. Just go to Apps->App Manager and you can find the stringApp and install it. Alternatively, since you've already downloaded it, you can do an "install from file" from within the App Manager.

Thank you Scooter. Based on your suggestion, it is working now. I installed stringApp from App Manager.

Thanks a lot.
