(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. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!

Guest Yvonne York Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 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.

Guest R. McCarty Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 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.

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. -- Lem -- MS-MVP To the moon and back with 2K words of RAM and 36K words of ROM. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer http://history.nasa.gov/afj/compessay.htm
