Oracle and Java

I'm using 11.2.0.4 for Windows 64bit. It comes with Java 5 as part of the install (I'm assuming so you don't need to have Java installed to use Oracle). How do I update that version of Java? I'm running into an error where I need the unlimited crypto package but I can't use it on Java 5 (I tried and it grenaded parts of Windows if I update the security files). I did then install Java 8 on the system but Oracle seems to look at it's own vs what is installed outside of Oracle.

not sure what happens but you can try copy new java into this folder

~\Oracle\product\x.x.x\client_1\jdk
~\Oracle\product\x.x.x\client_1\jdk\jre

* get a copy of old one before any change...
probably you will break the oracle client/server...

never tried such thing :)
