just download the msi again, and then you can point to it to uninstall

You can extract the msi from the exe.. this method is normally used for deployment in a domain. Are you in a domain - I would check with your admins before installing/uninstalling anything on company desktop.

you can find the java 6 update 25 x64 offline exe here.

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html#jre-6u25-oth-JPR

Here is info about how to extract

how did you get a msi install?? Strange - was it installed as part of a package? Either way you can download the offline exe and extra the msi, then when you go to uninstall it just point to where you extracted the msi too, etc.

Just grab the offline - do an install, have it reinstall, etc. Then uninstall it and you should be good.

NO You don't -- you just need to accept the license.. I don't have an oracle account that is for damn sure.

edit: Hmmm that is new, must be for the older copies.. Just sign up for one they are FREE, use some dummy info if you want.

edit2: If you don't want to do that grab it from oldapps

I think I need the 64-bit version of what I just done.

I got a box from Windows Installer stating:

The file

'C:\Users\Kaplan\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_25\jre1.6.0_25.msi' is not a valid installation package for the product Java 6 Update 25 (64-bit). Try to find the installation package 'jre1.6.0_25.msi' in a folder from which you can install Java 6 Update 25 (64-bit).

      They're likely moving all resources to other things. Clearly Windows is not important to them.

    • Microsoft cancels at least three Xbox games, guts Forza studio, and shuts down another

      By Sszecret · Posted

      A new Forza was among the things specifically mentioned as 'next year' during the Showcase in June. That's more than likely Horizon 6. Turn 10 made Motorsport and is responsible for the engine behind Horizon and the Fable reboot (with adjustments for each, of course). I think they'll likely remain a support studio for Playground. Given the fact that Turn 10's staff has been halved, and how much of a fumble the launch of Motorsport was (which remember, they initially branded as a 'platform' rather than just a standalone thing), the transition to support studio wouldn't surprise me.

      You're going to tell me these companies can justify these head counts? Meta Platforms Inc.: ~77,000 Amazon.com Inc.: ~1,500,000 Apple Inc.: ~164,000 Netflix Inc.: ~13,000 Alphabet Inc. (Google): ~185,719 Microsoft Corporation: ~221,000 (2024, per company reports) I'm assuming the Amazon figure is mostly drivers/seasonal/warehouse workers, with ~100k corporate jobs. What do any one of these companies put out to justify it? It doesn't take that many to maintain or slightly iterate on current products, which is all they do. They may have "small" teams working on new stuff, but nothing that requires those kind of personnel numbers. Cut them all down to proper size. Keep and let the big brains do their thing and invest in them. Get rid of those that are either not cutting it or not doing anything of real value. Let them go out and build their own thing, which is how Silicon Valley used to be, invest in those with potential and if they succeed, acquire them.
