I am trying to read user input from console using Scanner but it only reads my first input, and then on my second input it closes my program.

Here is my code:

}

Your e.getStackTrace on line 208 is presumably a mis-type for e.printStackTrace.
Fix that and see if you are getting any exceptions

instead of this,

choice = sc.nextInt();//line 141

try with using,

choice = Integer.parseInt(sc.nextLine());

As per my thinking,the error is because of this,as when you press enter after entering number,that is what is taken as filename.Changing into this will solve your issue here.

commented: Yes, looks lik ethe standard nextInt+nextLine gotcha +15
