I am an Administrator for a small company, and a department of 1 (with 1 part time intern) with a large growing number of IT tasks to manage and take care of. Best programming language to manage Linux and Windows Servers Best Practices & General IT.If you can live without Java PLEASE TRY! :) Then you can deleteĬ:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\Sun and/or Oracle

Also, utilize Opens a new window to clear up registry and local files for Java after uninstallation. If you have to uninstall Java for any reason, use the Java Uninstall Tool on Opens a new window. If that fails:Ģ) Reinstall those updates, they weren't the problem.ģ) Try an offline installation of Java 8 Update 65, which does not have this problem,(although it may have other issues)Ĥ) Remember to reboot your machine once it is installed. In some cases Windows updates were preventing it due to new WIndows installer security, soġ) Check recent Updates and remove them, install Java 8 Update 66. Recently Java 8 Update 66 would cause this very issue on Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows 10 systems, no matter what you did. Why? Because Java developers are sloppy and nervous about security since Java can be such a gaping hole in any network. Java has this problem every once in an update.
