Placeshifter 9.2.6 no "always on top" option

This seems to have popped up before, but I couldn't resolve it, running Windows 10 and I've tried Java 5, 7, 8 with both 32 and 64bit installers, does anyone have any other hints?

I had asked about this in the past. Someone made a small tweak in the program (apparently it was an oversight) that fixed it. Currently I call it with a batch file, since my Java is normally an earlier version than this requires. The command to select the required version of Java and run is (adjust the paths as appropriate for your system). If you don't normally run a Java version earlier than 7, this won't be necessary:

"C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw" -cp "c:\download\software\sagestuff\placeshifter 9 installed\MiniClient.jar;jogl.jar;gluegen-rt.jar" -Xmx1024m sage.miniclient.MiniClient

I'll attach the file needed. I think I needed to replace the miniclient.jar I had been using with the one in this zip. Rename or archive the original for safekeeping first.

edit (looked up some info to add):
Thanks to wnjj for making the necessary adjustment and sending me the .jar file. It had to do with commenting out a line that checked for Java version. Here's a link to the relevant thread (which was originally on a different topic):
