A Little Help Please

[Vargas]

am trying, cant find the version i need:

J2SE Runtime Enviroment 5

All i can find is Update2 To it.

I agree with rossco, reinstalling the old version, then uninstalling should work
here are some older version:

How do i do that???

clean ALL java related files out
you may not have it in add/remove programs
look in:

1. C:\Program Files\
delete the "Java" folder

2. C:\Program Files\Common Files\
delete the "Java" folder

3. C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\
delete the "Sun" folder

4. C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Application Data\
you should see a folder with a long ass string of numbers & letters,
something like this: {7148F0A6-6813-11D6-A77B-00B0D0142060}
open that folder, and it should be the java installer, if so delete the folder

that covers all the usual suspects i think,
then clean the registry, and see if you can then install a fresh JRE

Hvae tried above, hasnt worked, what regcleaner u reccommend?

[fkdup74]

i have used regseeker in the past, no complaints, and its free
regcleaner is also free, and i've seen it recommended as well

i do believe both make backups of entries they remove (regseeker i know does)
so you can restore easily if needed

Ahhhh still cant get rid of them, is there a way i can just remove it from th Add/Remove?? Its pretty much uninstalled,

in regseeker, theres an "installed applications" selection in the main menu
select that, scroll down to the java entry, right click > delete
reboot and it should be gone
