I understand you are green that's fine. I don't use the installer, so I didn't have groovyConsole.exe, but I did try the installer. My account is not an admin so I installed outside of Program Files, and for whatever reason I got no start menu entries, but all of the files did copy down. If I run groovyConsole.exe directly it did work. I'm not sure how groovyConsole.exe differs from the bat in terms of launching Groovy, or how the exe file is made.

However running the GroovyConsole.bat does indeed start up the console. At least I know my Java_Home is ok! Any idea why groovyConsole.exe doesnt run?
