   I reviewed past issues with the launcher and the win dll that were located 
on github. The dll is just a rats nest, so I  read the propaganda on JNA. Turns 
out we are in luck it does what is says it will. I took some time this morning 
and created a working 
   example with JNA its only dependency is:
          com.sun.jna.platform_5.13.0.jar
   
   In this draft i do the following things: 
   
   1.  read the win registry - get the product name
    2. Simulate the NB UI browser drop-down - loading the available browsers 
from the win reg.
    3.  Simulate the user selection from the drop down : see var 
"NBBrowserSelected"
    4.  launch the browser.
   
   Runs fast and smooth on my laptop. All things being equal I should be able 
to just send you this one file and it should run as is on your x64 windows 
machine. This may provide you with the base if not a starting point of what you 
need to scrap the dll.
   Still trying to help.
