When i downloaded java and it tried to install it i got an error message ;This Installation package could not be opened .Verify that the Package exists and that you can access it ,or contact the vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package .
Any know what i need to do to get Java loaded
I have tried to load it several time only same results and how do i know if i`m using a download manager and how do load it without it
Try it this way:
- Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6.
- Scroll down to where it says "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u17 allows end-users to run Java applications".
- Click the "Download" button to the right.
- Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement".
- The page will refresh.
- Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
- Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
- Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on programs and features, remove all older versions of Java.
- Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name.
- Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
- Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
- Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
- Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6u17-windows-i586-p.exe to install the newest version.
