    Latest Win 10 Update


    Latest Win 10 Update-winver-12.10.2016.jpg

    My PC now updated .. that took a long time, but here in Darkest Africa. I only have an "up to 4 Mbps" ADSL connection.

    I also see that this is my 100th post on TenForums :) This is a great forum, and the willingness of everybody to help less knowledgeable forum-ites is admirable.

    2 x instances of Java 8?


    Latest Win 10 Update-java-...-screenshot_1.jpg

    I now seem to have 2 x Java 8 Update installations, as per the above screenshot. This I noticed after the latest Win 10 update.

    I a bit puzzled as to where these came from, and I run Win 10 Pro 64-bit as my OS
    Any ideas to resolve?

    The one labeled simply Java 8 Update 101 is the 32-bit version (notice the file size is smaller than 64-bit also). Java can run in either 32- or 64-bit modes; some websites (or applications) are 32-bit only and that's why you have both.
    HTH,

    Many thanks Ed .. and it now makes sense to me. I had forgotten about the fact that I would still need the 32-bit version even though my Laptop is 64-bit
