Running .java files
I am having difficulty running.java files following their compilation. What is typically done for a file to run properly? Thanks!

You don't run .java files.
You compile (javac) .java files which creates .class files aka byte code.
You then java the .class file without the extension.

Running .class files
Yes, I know this... however I am unable to get those to run (the compiled file).... is tehre a setting or path I need to set up? I did this successfuly during a training program last year and am able to run them (they were created on anotehr machine); but I am unable to run any new files created on my local machine.
