this might sound stupid but relogged/rebooted after java install? (normally not needed but you never know)

have you tried saving the file and running as admin?

when viewing the downloads oyu can go to folder ,what happens when you open the file from the folder there?

and as admin? 

if it just flashes, I presume it either does not have permissions or doesn't find java? although I'm not knowledgable in how wurm works, so take it with a grain of salt.

Sounds like your system thinks it needs windows edge to open it, not java

 

Right click > open with, and go to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_181\bin and find javaws.exe, selecting that should launch it

Right click and open the .jnlp file that you save from the main Wurm Online website and open it with the javaws as Retrograde explained.
