Spring tool suite error 13 : Windows 8.1 and JAVA 8

Cannot start sts - it gives me below error - I am using Windows 8.1; JAVA Version 1.8.0_20 - not sure whats going wrong

I can't see the image that you mentioned, but I guess this is a mismatch between the STS version that you downloaded and the JDK that you are using with regards to 32bit vs. 64bit. It looks like you downloaded the 64bit version of STS. Are you sure that the JDK 1.8.0_20 that you have installed is a 64bit JDK as well? Error code 13 is often related to this kind of mismatch.
