@Kevin Browning All i can suggest is that you open task manager using CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and possibly even try notepad rather than notepad++ for this method, good luck!

Hey guys, I love trying to help as many people as I can by making new videos but I'm stuck for ideas; I would love to do a DayZ Taviana series at one point.

Thank You.

I have a SIMILAR problem.... I tried using this video to fix it, but I guess the small difference isnt small enough for this video to work....
The difference is that instead of saying java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out, it says
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: no further information

Please help! I've tried SO MANY TUTORIALS!!!

[GrealyC]

I love you man i freaking lovvve you!!!! :D :D <3

[Shemon]

Unfortunately it didn't work for me. :/
But good video, since it seems that it has helped a lot of people. :)

[lsteer]

[khalifa]

if it says you cant save just drag it to the desktop and edit it then drag it back done :D
