Minecraft Forums

We had to clean up my sons computer and Java was inadvertantly deleted. We re-installed Java with the most up to date version, but when he goes to launch Minecraft it tells him that there is a non-existent runtime environment installation. I'm not terribly computer savvy and have no clue how to fix this problem, nor do I know anything about Minecraft. He saved his allowance to buy the game and now cannot play it. Can anyone assist me with figuring out this problem?

That did it! Thanks so much for your help!
