In before the “Get an Apple.”

Explain what exactly is happening. Does your cmd window hang?
It’s been a while since I did anything with it, as it’s too different from “real” IOS devices if you need to something complicated. But it’s a terrific learning tool.
Can you PM me a bit more about what’s happening when you try to save a project?
As I said, it’s been a couple of years for me, and I began using GNS3, since it uses real IOS, simulating the Cisco hardware (the downside is it can’t emulate the Cisco switches, since the switch code is in ASIC, as opposed to the IOS.)
But I’ll try to help.
Mark
There are youtube videos that might help you set it up.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Have you tried calling Cisco support?
I beat my head against that piece of waste for a full semester and didn’t get it to work fully. Aced the course without it :-() Wish you better luck...........
Try running the command prompt as administrator. On Windows it’s in accessories right click then run as administrator.
Had my cisco certs for years...dump Cisco Networking Academy packet tracer...
GNS3 is the way to go
I had a similar issue. Try downgrading your Java version. Try 8u102. You can download older version of Java Here (Java Archive) Note that you need to create a free Oracle account to download the archived Java versions.
Hope this helps!
