Thanks for the positive feedback.
At some point you have to realize that running obsolete software causes you more trouble than installing the updates. XP SP2 has been obsolete and unsupported for quite some time. Its not a surprise certain software applications won't even install on it any more.
Sorry folks, but being new here I can't seem to discover the method to download: JavaMSIFix.exe.
When I click on the JavaMSIFix.exe anywhere it takes me to a page, but there's no way to download it.
It shows:
What the Tech > Downloads > Tech Support Tools > JavaMSIFix.exe
But I don't see a "download" button
Thank
Click the link and scroll down a little bit. There is a small "Download File" link in the middle of the page. If you cant find it, press Ctrl-F and search for "Download File."
It worked! It worked! It worked!

Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!
- - - - - - - A few notes:
My Firefox add-ons prevented the pop-up window at the bottom of the download page to open and to then allow the download.
So, I switched to IE, which on my PC has less restrictions/blocks.
Downloaded it onto to a small USB WDC (rotating) pocketdrive.
Took it to another PC.
It would not work from the USB WDC pocketdrive, Unknown error 87.
Copied the program to a directory on the “C:\” drive
Then, it worked – quickly & perfectly.

Thanks for the feedback.
It shouldn't matter if it is on a flashdrive or not. I would propose that it probably just failed the first time, and worked the second time. Some time this tool does that. Something screwy is going on if you run it a second time it will complete.
Take care
help me!
after hours of trying i cannot uninstall "java™ 6 Update 30" or install the newest version
i keep getting the Internal Error 2753. regutils.dll
could you please send me an updated version of the fixjava.bat!?
i am so frustrated with this!
thanks!
Thanks, worked 100% on my system for Java Runtime Environment 6.xx SE. I've been looking in my registry and deleted all the keys for it and it still didn't work until I came across this.
Thanks for the feedback,
appleoddity (who designed the fix) will be pleased to hear that his program has helped even more folks.
