I downloaded and installed Java from

Windows Offline https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp



Java For Desktop https://www.java.com/en/download/



I restarted my computer





C:\Program Files has Java folder and its files



C:\Program File (x86) has Java folder and its Java files





I have Windows 11 Home Edition hp laptop.



How do I fix my java problem so that I can use java and open up java files again please? I Jason thank you so very much!!

Hi Jason, it looks like your program is trying to access an internal Java class (sun.dc.path.PathException) that’s no longer available in newer Java versions. Try running your .jar with Java 8 — it should fix the issue. You can download Java 8 from Oracle’s archive or use OpenJDK 8. Hope that helps!
