This is NOT the default behavior in all previous families of java packages. ![]() ![]() So the way it is now, everytime a new version of Java 8 is installed, it will ADD the new java on the machine, leaving also the older version of java 8 on the machine unless specifically uninstalled. The purpose of STATIC=1 is to install in a different folder, so that it will always remain on the machine, never to be upgraded by a newer install. But anyone who has experience in packaging Java knows that the default path is C:\Program Files\Java\jreX (x being the family, 6, 7, 8 etc) Reinstall Oracle Java if you need to restore the Oracle registry keys. ![]() The log shows me that it is indeed setting the installdir to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_25\\. Although I should not have to do this, since normally if left unspecified it should install a non static version (so in C:\Program Files\Java\jre8) Like all previous version of java 7 and 6 did. ![]()
