Problem Uninstalling JRE 1.4.2_01

Hi, i am having problems silently uninstalling JRE 1.4.2_01 on windows XP wonder if anyone can help, When running the silent uninstall command....... j2re-1_4_2_01-windows-i586.exe /s /v "/qn REBOOT=Suppress" /x......nothing happens.
I am trying to update the JRE from Build_05 to Build_28 of 1.4.2_01 for development reasons. I have tried overwritting the current installation using silent install and pointing the INSTALLLDIR to the existing one but get error " Incorrent Command line parameters" when running the silent install. Works fine when doing the install normally via the wizard but not using the silent commands.
Any help is much appreciated.

Two things: Is there a document detailing manual removal of this JRE (and indeed others); you mention different 'builds' of the same JRE, this is the first time I have read that there are sub-versions/releases of a JRE. Where do I find out the available builds of this JRE and others and how they differ?

Hello Kasper138 & welcome to discussions.
Have you re-calibrated your screen for the new (PC) gamma?
If you MB has ambient light sensing, have you tried disabling/reenabling that option?

Need to completely uninstall JRE 1.3.1

Installing JRE 1.3.1 on a Win2k SP2 machine causes a 16bit application to fail with a "not enough space for environment" error. Uninstalling JRE 1.3.1 does not solve the problem.
I can repeat this at will using a machine with only Windows 2000 installed. The problem only appears when the Path variable is over 100 bytes.
At this point my first priority is getting this 16bit app working. Are there some settings not cleaned up by the uninstall that can be manually changed to restore functionality?

When I run into similar problem, the way I get around it is to enter the shorten MS-DOS name in the PATH variable in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and reboot the machine. For example:
set path=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\DOS;C:\LF9045\BIN;C:\JDK1.3.1\BIN
set path=%PATH%;"C:\Progra~1\Mts";"C:\Progra~1\Micros~1.0\bin";
So, my suggestion is for you to cleanup the autoexec.bat file and reboot to see if it solves your problem.

Can't uninstall JRE.

I have Windows Vista Home Premium. I'm trying to uninstall the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (Java(TM) 6 Update 13). Whenever I attempt to do so, the green loading bar fills up underneath "Preparing to remove...", and it asks for my administrative permission to continue, so I click continue. As soon as I do that, however, an error message pops up saying:
Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
I must have deleted one or many DLL files required to uninstall the program. So how can I go about uninstalling JRE? Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Step 1: Download JavaRa to make sure all obsolete jre files will be removed. ( http://raproducts.org/ ). Run it as administrator. If program log (default location: JavaRa.log ) doesn't show any removed files go to step 2.
Step 2: Download Windows Installer CleanUp from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/en . Install it (as administrator of course :) ), run it, then remove Java Runtime Environment entry from the list.
That's all.
Kind Regards,

Problems Uninstalling Acrobat 9 pro ...

I was wondering if anyone else was having problems uninstalling Acrobat 9 Pro. I run an IT department and have tried everything that can think of to get the thing uninstalled. Nothing's working, it continuously comes up with errors saying that it can't uninstall, that there is already a newer version of Acrobat installed, or some other random errors. The computer is an "extra"computer, and the cd key for Acrobat 9 Pro is now installed on another machine. All I want to do is take Acrobat 9 off and reinstall Acrobat 8.
Any suggestions?

Deactivate before uninstalling (unless this is a volume license). Then use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup tool.

Mouse pointer problems in JRE 1.4.0

Does anyone else see a problem with JRE 1.4.0 when using the 3D style mouse pointers in Windows 98? If I use the default 3d mouse pointers that came with Windows, the menus and other areas of the java GUIs draw a square any time you click on something. If I set my mouse pointer to the Windows Standard I do not see this problem.

I am currently having this problem in plugin 1.3.1 which
is what we will be implementing. We have to update the
video drivers on a number of machines to correct the problem.
I tried the 1.4.0 and it seemed to clear up but we won't use this version until a full general release is available.
Another fix is to turn off the mouse shadow.
We are running windows 2000.

Having problems uninstalling and running Photoshop CS3

I downloaded the trial for Adobe Photoshop CS3 and it has now expired. I tried to uninstall it but it does nothing. It will not come off my computer. If I try to open it, it tells me
The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call customer support. I tried redownloading and reinstalling it but it still does the same thing and customer support after waiting on hold for 10 minutes for someone to answer, just sent me here.
How do I get rid of this program???
Also now that this is there, I can't run my CS2. It tells me my settings have changed and I need to reactivate but it won't let me reactivate apparently I guess it's been activated too many times (the first computer I had it on crashed and so I had to reinstall it on this computer I am using now) So now because of whatever is wrong with this CS3 I can never again use my CS2. I don't want to repurchase it, what do I do??

I don't want to repurchase it, what do I do??
In reference to Lynley Stanley, I too am having the exact problem. I downloaded as for my class of Animation and Visual Effects at the Academy of Art University while waiting for my software to come in the mail from Academic Superstore. I am so frustrated about this that such an issue has caused so much madness. In the process of trying to remove Adobe Photoshop CS3 from my Windows Vista I was searching for info on how to uninstall as I was in a hurry to uninstall the program because my 4th week into class started using the program as students are expected to follow along having their own for assignments. Well, now I'm behind and I don't want to fail because of something that is causing the problem as I'd like to call intentional. In the process of trying to figure a way to uninstall fast as not to fall behind and fail in class I downloaded Perfect Uninstaller but I don't know how it will work. Now in reference of trying to quickly uninstall just to keep up with class, that will not be possible, so now I had to take time to look online knowing I'm falling more and more behind because of this difficult matter I finally found this and hopefully I'll be going somewhere as to have the problem corrected. Alright, now I'm going to try with what has been listed. Thank you for the Info. :)

Problem uninstalling CS4 after installing CS5 - help!

I installed CS5 without a hitch.
I then tried to uninstall CS4. I opened Photoshop and chose Help/Deactivate, taking care to tick the serial number box too.
After the uninstall procedure, I got an message that it had completed but with errors.
In Control Panel/Programs, CS4 is still listed, but now showing only 3.77Mb instead of the 300Mb+ that it was.
I then downloaded Adobe Support Advisor and ran it. The diagnosis directed me to this Knowledge Base Article.......
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403891.html#ionComHeading
1. Can I get rid of what remains of CS4 in my Control Panel?
2. Will it affect my system in any way?
3. Will it affect CS5 in any way?
I've never had a problem uninstalling older versions in the past. Not a happy bunny at all!
Thanks.
D.
ps. I couldn't not insert the above link by right clicking and choosing insert link - had to type it by hand. But, the kb number (403891) is definitely correct.

I've never had a problem uninstalling older versions in the past.
...but then you probably obeyed the correct order in the first place. Anyway, there is no harm in leaving the remnants in place. you can of course make them disappear by removing the relevant registry key(s), but how important that little cosmetic surgery is to you, is for you to decide.

Uninstalling JRE SE v1.4.2_04

I have uninstalled JRE SE v1.4.2_04 through Control Panel --> Add/Remove Programs, but when I try to load the newest version of Java, I get a message telling me that here is an old version installed and references version 1.4.2. I need to get JRE 1.6.0_22 installed. How do I accomplish this if I can't uninstall the old version? Or, how do I get JRE 1.4.2 completely uninstalled (it is no longer appearing in Add/Remove Programs)?

How to uninstall JRE from LINUX OS

hi,
I want to uninstall JRE old version from Linux OS.
I go to add/remove panel, but there is no option uninstall the JRE from LINUX OS.(i expect as Like windows)
In user manual from SUN for JRE also doesnot have how to uninstall JRE.
Any idea abt it.
Also, i want to put the JRE in CD,and from CD i want to install that JRE using linux shell script. is it possible.
If any one know, pls tell me.
thank you.

This is from the following link: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000011600.xml#jre
II. JRE Uninstallation
There are two ways to uninstall the JRE. Please use the method that you used when you installed the JRE. For example, if you used RPM to install the JRE, then use the RPM uninstallation method.
RPM uninstallation
Note: If you have RPM on your Linux box, you should first find out if Java is already installed using RPM. If Java is not installed using RPM, you should skip reading.
Open Terminal Window
Login as the super user
Try to find jre package by typing: rpm -qa
If RPM reports a package similar to jre-<version>-fcs, then Java is installed with RPM.
Note: Normally, you do not need to uninstall JRE with RPM, because RPM is able to uninstall the old JRE when installing a new version! You may skip reading, unless you want to remove JRE permanently.
To uninstall the JRE, type: rpm -e jre-<version>-fcs
Self-extracting file uninstallation
Find out if Java is installed in some folder. Common locations are /usr/java/jre_<version> or /opt/jre_nb/jre_<version>/bin/java/
When you have located the folder, you may delete folder.
Warning: You should be certain that Java is not already installed using RPM before removing the folder.
Type: rm -r name. For example: rm -r jre1.5.0

How to uninstall JRE in Fedora Core 5

Hi, I'm new to linux and especially FC5, I was following instructions to install JRE so that web pages with Java applets would run, managed to install it but haven't gone as far as creating the plug-in link, but then noticed that what I really wanted to do was to install the SDK so I could a bit of Java programming too.
So my question is ... how do I uninstall JRE so that I can neatly install the SDK. I assume I cannot just delete the folder?
I used jre-1_5_0_6-linux-i586.bin and followed instructions from http://www.stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_5_installation_notes.html#Java
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sumdude

I assume I cannot just delete the folder?Why not?Am I just too used to Windows - spreading files here there and everywhere, making entries in the registry?
Does the linux version install all the files in just one folder? If not, I'd rather find a method to uninstall properly and not leave any rogue files lying around.
Could there be a section created for uninstallations? There's seems enough questions about unistallations to warrant a seperate section.
Many Thanks,
Sumdude
