--workDir workaround does not work for hard-linked .minecraft directory
Reading through issue MCL-5528 I applied the --workDir parameter to my Minecraft shortcut and it seemed to work as the original error went away:
The game directory is invalid or inaccessible.
Error details: The system cannot find the file specified
Filename on disk: .minecraft
Path: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft
Exists: directory
However, now I am receiving this error:
Unable to locate the Java runtime.
Error details: The system cannot find the file specified
Filename on disk: javaw.exe
Path: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\runtime\jre-x64\1.8.0_25\bin\javaw.exe
Exists: file
(They don't actually display %USERPROFILE%, just making messages more succinct)
Is there a parameter for controlling the Java version that the Launcher uses?
Environment
Windows 10
