I can try reinstalling Java: I have currently Java 7 update 45 (the most recent) version installed. Is this a problem and should I on the contrary install an older version (since this is what is requested for installed MinimServer on the NAS)?

This version of Java is fine. There is no need for the Java versions on the PC and NAS to match. Can you check whether you have the correct file association for the .jar extension? This information is available in Control Panel > Default Programs. You can also look in Control Panel > Java and use the Java tab to check whether the Java runtime is enabled.

Another thing you can try is to start Task Manager and leave the window open while you double-click the MinimWatch icon. Do you see a new entry for javaw.exe briefly appear and disappear?
