Exactly same thing is happening to me. It's also making it unable to open and download other programs. I'll go to the Java page to download the newest Java and I'll get an error telling me 'The registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment installation or the runtime is corrupt. The system cannot find the file specified'. I do the Java check to see if Java is running and Firefox prompts me to download JRE, which I can't. I go to uninstall Java and I get the same error. Since I can't open some other files, Shimeji for example, I'm assuming it's the Windows Installer.

From the Windows Installer page, none of the versions seem to work on my computer. Any help would be amazing.

I fixed this for myself, after days of tribulations: Adding the Java thing to the Path variable didn't make a difference to start, and typing in 'java -version' in cmd posted an error. However, that error showed that it was looking in the E: drive for the AMD64 Java, which wasn't installed.

Additionally, trying to install the AMD64 Java resulted in a silly 'invalid character' error for 'Program Files', so it couldn't install. I fixed it now though, by regediting Computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/ and then each time that the E. Directory showed up, I replaced it with C: Program Files (x86) Java jre6. Then, the AMD64 Java install worked, wonderfully, and everything else then worked, including 'java -version' and Minecraft.exe. IF YOU'RE RUNNING ON A 64 BIT MACHINE: Download and install: The issue is Oracle. In Oracles attempt to make Java more 'User friendly' They no longer let you choose the version of Java you want.

They choose for you. It was incredibly hard to find the 64 bit version of the jre. In fact I don't think that the Java site has a direct link at all. Every time I downloaded Java off of the Java site, it would re-install the 32 bit version of Java on my machine.

Hey guys its Sebo thx so much for watching another my terrible videos! Hope this video is helpful and have a wonderful day! If this tutorial doesn't work.

(Even though I'm running on a 64 bit computer. (Might be because I'm using Google Chrome.) I had to get a version uploaded to CNET.

Simply download this and install it and your minecraft executable should run fine. Mine did anyways.
