I believe I am doing something wrong: Now nothing run by java works; I keep getting the error message of "This application requires a Java Runtime Enviroment of 1.5.0
To the fix the error message "This application requires a Java Runtime..."
Follow these steps:
1. Go ahead and download and install Ccleaner. (Check Google for a download.)
2. I'd recommend performing a clean of windows and applications. (handled on the main tab.) *Make sure to write any website's you have loaded in tabs on your internet browser as you will most likely delete them by selecting, "Run cleaner." Also note that it will likely logout all currently signed in accounts. e.g. Youtube, email, etc.
3. I'd also recommend heading to the registry page and hitting, "Scan for issues," and, "Fix selected issue." You will probably have to do this a few times to fix all the errors.
4. Go to the, "Tools," tab and scroll down and uninstall every instance of Java that you find on your computer. (Excluding things like Javafx 2.1.1. You're looking for Java updates.)
5. Reinstall the latest version of Java.
