    @KAJAMstudios According to Oracle's Keytool Support Page, in Java 6 and up they've renamed the command -genkey to -genkeypair

    Try typing this instead:

    keytool -genkeypair -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore -alias alias_name -keyalg RSA -sigalg SHA1withRSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

    replacing 'my-release-key.keystore' with your 'name.keystore'

    and 'alias_name' with your name
    (remember only the first 8 characters are used in the name)

    From your picture it looks like your version of keytool knows that you're trying to make a keystore. If it's still not happy with RSA maybe try using DSA instead or changing 2048 to 1024. I don't know much about encryption so someone else may have to jump in here.
