Some background - with the introduction of modules, reflection needs to be explicitly enabled for each module via the "opens" directive ( https://www.baeldung.com/java-9-modularity pt. 4.8 ) Problem is, java.util.Properties is part of the base module which comes with the JRE so we can't modify it's descriptor. So this is really not our bug but an issue with Launch4j.
This is a good place to plug this project - https://github.com/knaccc/embedded-i2p-java-router-with-sam which uses "jlink" to create an executable with embedded minimal JRE.
