For starters I am using Windows 8

Whenever I try to open the installer for Optifine with Java Platform SE Binary it just opens a cmd window for a split second then closes automatically and nothing happens after that.

Some background info:
When I downloaded Java I downloaded it into the Bin folder in my downloads folder. There is a program inside it simply named Java, and when I right click and press properties where it says Description it says Java(TM) Platform SE Binary. The program people use in the tutorials says Java(TM) Platform SE Binary. All help is appreciated :)
