Problem
Whys isn’t Java dead yet? 🙁 Anyway, I tried to connect to a clients ASDM today, and from my Windows 10 machine, I got the following error;
Windows 11
Windows 10
This app can’t run on your PC
To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher.
‘This app can’t run on your PC’ Solution
Make sure you have installed Java (www.java.com) and also make sure you are using an Intel (Not ARM based processor)
If you are launching straight for the desktop open the properties of the ASDM shortcut, and look at the ‘Target‘ value.
Change it to;
[box]
C:\Windows\system32\wscript.exe invisible.vbs run.bat
[/box]
Apply > OK.
Try again.
If you are launching from the ‘Start Menu’ Open the file location of the shortcut;
Windows 11
Windows 10
And change the target to “C:\Windows\system32\wscript.exe invisible.vbs run.bat“. > Apply > OK.

Thank you very much.
I have accessed ASDM. I spend a day to access it…
I thank you again.
Great, thank you very much managed to get in with this trick.
Thanks for this – solved my problem
Thank you
Thanks and good info. There’s a new wrinkle, I get error message “can’t find invisible.vbs after the fix above, I have to copy wscript.exe from c:windowssystem32 into the folder C:Program Files (x86)Cisco SystemsASDM.
The whole path is then:
“C:Program Files (x86)Cisco SystemsASDMwscript.exe” invisible.vbs run.bat
Don’t forget the quotes.
Thank you
