    Oracle Java SE 8 Release Updates


    Public updates for Oracle Java SE 8 will remain available for individual, personal use through at least the end of 2020.

    Public updates for Oracle Java SE 8 released after January 2019 will not be available for business, commercial or production use without a commercial license.


    If you are a CONSUMER using Java for individual, personal use, you will continue to have the same access to Oracle Java SE 8 updates as you do today through at least the end of 2020. In most instances, the Java-based applications you run are licensed separately by a company other than Oracle (for example, games you play on your PC are likely developed by a gaming company). These applications may run on the Java platform and be dependent on Oracle Java SE 8 updates beyond 2020. Accordingly, Oracle recommends you contact your application provider for details on how they plan to continue to provide application support to you.

    If you are a DEVELOPER, Oracle recommends you review the roadmap information for Java SE 8 and beyond and take appropriate action depending on the type of application you develop and your distribution model.

    If you are acting on behalf of an ENTERPRISE, Oracle recommends you review the roadmap information for Java SE 8 and beyond and begin to assess your ongoing Java support requirements in order to migrate to a later release or obtain a Java SE Subscription, as appropriate, on a timely basis.

    If you are an ORACLE CUSTOMER who is licensed to use Java SE as part of another Oracle product, you continue to have access to Oracle Java SE 8 updates beyond 2019 for use with those Oracle products, see this My Oracle Support (MOS) note for more information.

    "Suppress sponsor offers when installing or updating Java" - I didn't know such an option exists. Thanks for the info, guys! :)

    Did the install fail removing older versions for you as well? I had update 60 installed, the 65 installer also found it and I made it remove the old version. However, afterwards all files in the program folder were still there. I had to remove them manually...

    I always update through Java control panel, over the previous, and it cleans out the older version itself.

    Gary that's Java RE not JAVA, 2 different animals.
    Summary:
    1. Java is a software platform, while JRE is a software package.
    2. JRE contains the necessary software for running Java applications.
    3. Java is the same, regardless of the operating system, while the JRE differs.
    I just checked.

    It should, but that didn't work: It did the clean up, but the files have not been removed. I had to do that by hand.
