This might not help but you can give this a try

btw, I don't think the version your trying to install is this latest.

WARNING: Java is the #1 exploited program at this time. The Department of Homeland Security recommends that computer users disable Java

Please read this article about Java.

I would recommend that you completely uninstall Java unless you need it to run an important software.
In that instance I would recommend that you disable Java in your browsers until you need it for that software and then enable it. (See How to disable Java in your web browser and How to unplug Java from the browser)

If you do need to keep Java then download JavaRa
Run the programme and select Remove Java Runtime. Uninstall all versions of Java present
Once done then run it again and select Update Java run time ; Download and install Latest version.

I would recommend that you completely uninstall Java unless you need it to run an important software.

 

I agree with Juliet completely. I uninstalled Java a couple years ago and have not run into one program that needs it.

 

Understand if you do find a program that needs it, you will be prompted to install it. Windows definitely does not need it. And I know of no security program or browser that needs Java. So no harm will come to your system if you uninstall it. Instead, your computer will become and remain more secure.

HI Digerati

I think I'm close to the 2 year mark for removing it myself.
I dreaded it tho, turns out, nothing I do needs Java.

Why did dread it?

Why did dread it?

I was unsure what would happen and what all I would have to do to get the system restored to what I used to working with.

I know, it was silly.

Ah, I understand. Yeah, the fear of breaking things, or making things worse, sadly, stops many users from making beneficial changes to their systems. I note many companies exploit this "human trait". Norton and McAfee are good examples. They've worked out deals (conspired?) with many computer makers to preinstall their security suites on new computers then IMO use scare tactics to intimidate users into thinking if they uninstall those programs after the trial period and go with Windows Defender or another option that they will no longer be safe and secure. So the users, fearful of getting infected, cough up the cash - (year after year! ) .

 

Anyway, I am glad you overcame your doubts and now without regrets.
