I decided it would be a good time to upgrade from Version 7 as well lol.

Oh well. My old man says, if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it.


Hmmm, it didn't remove Update 7 for me. Had to do it manually.

I think it will only remove version 10 since that was the most recent.

I think you can do either a static install, which will leave any previous versions (ideal for Admins) or it should overwrite the previous version, assuming that was v10.

I've heard a few folk say it won't uninstall anything prior to v10.

I'll confirm that - v11 automatically removed/updated v10.

I've seen a few reports that it doesn't remove anything under v6u10 so if you have anything earlier then that you need to manually uninstall. Or use JavaRA.

Download JavaRa
  • Unzip the file and open the JavaRa.exe
  • Click Remove Older Versions
  • JavaRa will search for and remove any outdated version of Java and remove any that are found.
  • Click Additional Tasks
  • Place a check next to Remove Useless JRE Files and click Go
  • Exit JavaRa
  • Delete the JavaRa files from the Desktop

Sun released a huge list of vulnerabilities in old versions. If you haven't updated in a while it would probably be a good idea to do so now.
