Seems like your open handler for .jar files got messed up somehow. Open a command line, cd to your desktop directory (where you downloaded the jar file to), and run java -jar Rift-jitpack-1b46b5dcf4-1.jar

sorry for not answering i've been sick but that didn't work either. i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling java and installing a different version of java and none of those worked either. in the case of the different version of java it wouldn't even give me an error window it was like nothing happened.

Windows isn't pointing to the right Java executable, I'd suggest trying Jarfix to reset it to what it should be.
