RobotBuilder Behaving Badly

My team has a number of new programmers and so I have them using RobotBuilder and Command based development. But we are having a LOT of issues with the jar. It refuses to run on some Windows 8 systems. Since the jar is run from command line Java and there is no command line in Windows 8 it is really hard to test. I posted to the FIRST / WPI forum and the only response was to uninstall Inventor which we are not using. On some of the Win 7 systems RobotBuilder loads and works the first instance and then will not run the if there is a save yml project file. The DOS window opens and then hangs.

I would appreciate any suggestions for getting more stability of RobotBuilder. I would post issues but it either works as described in the videos or just plain does not load - no errors, no runs, no hits.
