This error occurs because the Ninecraft executable file (ninecraft.exe or just ninecraft) is missing in the game folder. To fix this, download it manually from https://github.com/NLauncher/components/raw/refs/heads/main/ninecraft-linux.zip (for Linux) or https://github.com/NLauncher/components/raw/refs/heads/main/ninecraft-windows.zip (for Windows) and select this file as the custom executable in the launcher settings.

1. Make sure you're using the x86 version of the game, no higher than 0.11.1-2
