Please post the literal error message - not a paraphrased version of it. And let us know what you're doing when you get it

The error looked like the attached. User generated image   It continuously pops up on the screen. I was trying to run an air conditioning program that needs to use it. It also pops up when I am not doing anything.
It also pops up when I am not doing anything.
That's a worry. That means that something you're not aware of is trying to use Java. If i were you, i'd see that as the problem first. Check scheduled jobs. Also google on "autoruns" by Sysinternals and find, install and run that to find that "something"

Hi Avib27,

I have gut feeling that you have not installed java properly.first of all whatever version you are using for java whether 7  or 8 or 9 or 10.
please download from oracle website java win exe 64 bit or 32 bit. Most probably you have windows 64 bit.

Make a folder in c:\ drive like c:\jdk8  and install it
It will install jdk runtime also.

then even if your another programe asks for jre it will find and there will be no error.

thanks
To add futhere if you have some java version wrongly installed first remove it from control panel->uninstall programm
and start fresh installation

how can you tell which is the culprit  when you run  "autoruns" by Sysinternals

gsk - I already tried that and it didnt work.
Hi,
Have you checked java applet in control panel?
Does it list your environment under Java Tab?
If your Air Conditioning software is an application installed on your PC then it might be using some its own binaries under a "Bin" folder where this software is installed.  Check if java.exe does exist in that bin folder/directory.

if that software runs as web app then make sure its IP/web-address is listed under security tab of Java applet in control panel.

Thank you all for the help and suggestions. I tried the autorun program and everything looked normal. I then used the https://www.java.com/en/download/help/uninstall_java.xml link and reinstalled. Reinstalling came up with a download failed error. I then found a way to download Java manually and that worked.

Thank you all again!
