Circuit Construction Kit DC v3.19 won't start

I am trying to start Circuit Construction Kit DC v3.19 because a bit later than that they made an HTML5 version that starts in a browser, and I want the non-HTML version, the one that doesn't use a browser to open.
I see it's a jar file.
So I start it with java -jar circuitconstructionkitdcen319.jar
and it gets stuck here, it just hangs, the bar keeps moving left and right but it never finishes loading.
I found it and downloaded it from http://www.brothersoft.com/circuit-construction-kit-(dc-only)-307097.html
I have tried to run it on two different computers and run into the same problem. One computer runs java 1.8, the other also java 8 / 1.8, from https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/java_portable Both run into the same problem. So I think people will find the problem easy to reproduce.

Try an older version of Java. Around 2010 the version of Java would have been Java 6.

Looks like that was just an issue with 3.19 and 3.20 fixed it, and 3.20 is available here
https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/legacy/circuit-construction-kit-dc
That said, now I can start it,
I see that while the program includes a voltmeter and ammeter, it doesn't even have an Ohmmeter so it's a ridiculously limited learning tool.
