why do you want to do that? jar files are executable files so when you double click it, it will execute without having to run it from the command prompt. So, you don't have to even open the cmd prompt to run .jar files.

some programs on windows platform treat the jar file as archive files like winrar. double click might open the winrar wizard. to avoid this use the right click function and select open with the find the appropriate java.exe
