The '''Java Network Launching Protocol''' ('''JNLP''') is the file format used by Java Web Start, a [[Java]] component that allows programs to be run outside of the browser (i.e. not as applets) but still in a sandbox. Users download the JNLP file and give it to an interpreter, which in turn downloads resources ([[Jar]] files, splash screens, etc.) whose [[URL]]s are listed by the file, and runs them. Java Web Start, like the applet system, eventually fell into disuse, and it was finally removed in Java version 11<ref>http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/javaclientroadmapupdate2018mar-4414431.pdf → p. 6</ref> in 2018<ref>[[Wikipedia:Java version history]]</ref>.
