"Could Not Create Java Virtual Machine"

Hello,

I have been receiving a pop-up notification error when I am idle from my computer for about 3-5 minutes which informs me that "Java could not create the Java Virtual Machine". I have NO clue what this means. I have tried un-installing and reinstalling Java, but that's all I could come up with. Any tips? Because this is very annoying.

Hi there.

Two things to try, in this order:

1) Disable the 3rd party firewall if you have one. Usually uninstall is necessary to test but not for this. Reboot.

2) If issue still repeats, download and install Malwarebytes. Run it then update definitions within it. Let it scan and remove anything it finds.

Let us know how it goes. There are lots of great folks here. Someone is liable to come up with a solution for you.

I'll try this now, thank you.

Yeah, mine's still doing it:/
