java not working in windows 8 (Solved)

Hi friends, well lately i signed up for anymeeting.com for organizing online meeting that’s when i came across this problem Chrome showed java is not installed in your PC. But i had installed java before so i reinstalled it but again the same message was there.

Solution:

  • Install latest version of JDK
  • Latest version of JRE
  • Notice that if you are running 32 bit browser then you must have x86 bit Java installed. So all those using x64 bit OS must install x86 bit JRE if they are using 32 bit browser as in my case this was the problem.
  • Both x64 and x86 JAVA can be installed simultaneously. So better install both! (i have bothinstalled)
  • Now, Add the path of java compiler to the environment variable as shown below:
  1. Open Advance System Settings > Environment Variables> System Variables.
  2. Click New(if it doesn’t exist else Edit) : CLASSPATH (variable name), %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib; (variable value),
  3. Click New : JAVA_HOME (name), C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0 (value).
  4. Click Edit in Path: in value add: %JAVA_HOME%\bin;
  5. Save and exit.
Note ‘ ; ‘ separates one path with other just like ‘ . ‘ denotes the end of a line.’
Hope this solves your problem. Enjoy java in windows 8.
