if you still insist on installing, what error are you getting?

can you open any other program?

are there any errors for this issue in event viewer?

MonsieurX · Jul 18, 2018

I search in the Event Viewer there is nothing for this problem. There is no error When I open it. It first show box to execute after clicking on Execute button it do nothing. I have installed Firefox. Thanks for your help.

if you are having problems with .exe files, then the registry fix above should fix it. download to desktop, double click to merge to the registry, reboot, and then see if you can open the java file.

MonsieurX · Jul 19, 2018

I try it. Same result. I don't think the .exe files are the problem because I have installed Firefox on this computer. Thanks for your help.

first run javara to ensure all traces of java are gone, reboot, then try the java install again.
