Java jre-6u10

[Yvonne York]

OS: Win XP Pro SP3
Browser: IE7

Just downloaded and installed Java jre-6u10-windows-i586-p-s.exe

The installation was successful.

1. In 'Add or Remove Program' panel are two (2) Java items listed viz:
Java(TM) 6 Update 10 (Size 96.89MB)
and
Java(TM) 6 Update 7 (size 114.00MB)

Is it okay to remove Java(TM) 6 Update 7 from the 'Add or Remove Program'
panel?

2. In C:\Program Files\Java are two (2) folders listed viz:
jre 1.6.0_07 and jre6

Is it okay to delete folder jre 1.6.0_07 ?

ActiveX Control items listed viz:

a) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_07 File: jp2iexp.dll

c) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_10 File: jp2iexp.dll
d) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_10 File: npjpi160_10.dll

Items 'b' and 'c' are double entries.

Is it okay to delete items 'a' and 'b' ?

4. In'Add-ons that run without requiring permission' are seven (7) Java
ActiveX Control items listed viz:

a) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_07 File: jp2iexp.dll
b) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_07 File: jp2iexp.dll

f) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_10 File: jp2iexp.dll
g) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_10 File: jp2iexp.dll

Do I require the triple/quadruple entries?

Is it okay to delete items 'a' thru 'f' ?

5. In 'Downloaded ActiveX Controls (32-bit) are four (4) Java ActiveX
Control items listed viz:

a) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_07 File: jp2iexp.dll
b) Java Plug-in 1.6.0_10 File: jp2iexp.dll

Yes, remove it and the ones below will also be removed. You should
always remove old Java installs when there's a new one.

(snippage)

Uninstall the older Java. Reboot. Delete the older Java's folder if it still
remains. If the add-ons (or anything else) referring to the older Java are
still there after the uninstallation, you should remove them.

Re: Java jre-6u10

Thank you Alias, Malke and TCW.
I removed the old Java installation in 'Add or Remove Programs' window which
deleted the old folder as well. Now, since you haven't mentioned anything
about the multiple entries in IE7 (Manage Add-ons), I assume that this is
okay.

On a different issue, could anybody hazard a guess as to why 'Add or Remove
Programs' is listed twice in my 'Control Panel' ?
TIA.

Re: Java jre-6u10

The applet for Add/Remove programs is appwiz.cpl. Normally this is
found in the system path \Windows\System32. You might want to do
a full system search ( Hidden, System ) for appwiz.cpl. It's possible
your machine has a 2nd instance of the applet in another location.

Re: Java jre-6u10

It's possible that sloppy mouse work at one point caused an accidental
drag and drop of the Add/Remove icon which caused a copy process, and
now you have two...

Have you tried deleting one of them?

According to the article, earlier versions won't be removed ... yet:

It's nice that Sun has finally heeded the calls from its user base, but
since we don't have an Update 11 yet, it's hard to tell how well this
patch in place process will work. What's more, while Update 10 promises
to remove itself whenever Sun ships the next post-Update 10 release, it
doesn't remove any pre-Update 10 versions hanging around the user's system.

Re: Java jre-6u10

Yes! There were two (2) items in System32. I removed appwiz(2).cpl (Control
Panel extension 537KB) and after rebooting the second entry had disappeared.
Thanks.
