If you are unable to run TWS after installing on a 64 bit system, below are the instructions that will avoid the “missing shortcut” error that you might encounter and allow you to run TWS as expected.
- Install 32 bit Java. (remove any old java installations first)
- Install TWS (followed by the API if you are using it)
- Copy the file “Javaw.exe” from “C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin” and place it in “C:\Windows\System32”
- Now open from the TWS shortcut as normal.
