As of April 8, 2014 Microsoft stopped supporting Windows XP and therefore it is no longer an officially supported platform. Users may still continue to use Java 8 updates on Windows XP at their own risk, but we can no longer provide complete guarantees for Java on Windows XP, since the OS is no longer being updated by Microsoft. Java is a program that enables you to do a range of online activities, like play games, download photos, and chat. Without this software, these kinds of actions usually can't be performed. Jul 19, 2014 Java can run applications developed using the java programming language and set of development tools. The JVM is a crucial component of the Java platform. The availability of JVMs on many types of hardware and software platforms enables Java to function both as middleware and a platform in its own right.

System Requirements
See supported System Configurations for information about supported platforms, operating systems, desktop managers, and browsers.
Running with less memory may cause disk swapping which has a severe effect on performance. Very large programs may require more RAM for adequate performance.
Troubleshooting the InstallationNote:
- Trying to install the Java SE Runtime Environment on a non-supported version of Microsoft Windows or on a machine that doesn't have a sufficiently up-to-date Service Pack will cause the installer to generate this warning: 'We recommend that you do not install this Java platform for the following reasons: This Java platform does not support the operating system or operating-system service pack on this machine.'
- See Browsers Supported by Next-Generation Java Plugin for information about browser support in the new Java Plugin.

Note: For any text on this page containing the following notation, you must substitute the appropriate update version number for the notation.For example, if you are downloading the installer for update 1.6.0_01, the following file name:would become:1.If choosing 'Windows Offline Installation', download and check the download file sizeAfter clicking the JRE 'Download' link for the 'Windows Offline Installation' a dialog box pops up -- choose the following option:
- Save - This saves the downloaded file without installing it. Check that you have downloaded the entire file by comparing the size of the file you downloaded with the expected size shown on the download page:

This file contains everything needed to install the Java SE Runtime Environment, including the installer and character conversion classes and support for locales other than the US English locale.
You must have administrative permissions in order to install the Java SE Runtime Environment on Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP.
The download page provides the following two choices of installation. Continue based on your choice.

- Run the file downloaded in step 1 by double-clicking on the installer's icon. Then follow the instructions the installer provides. When done with the installation, you can delete the downloaded file to recover disk space.With either choice, the installer may ask you to reboot your computer 3.If you want to run Netscape 7.x, Mozilla 1.x, or Firefox 1.x with Java Plugin, do this:- Exit the Netscape 7.x, Mozilla 1.x, or Firefox 1.x browser and all of its 'objects' (Messenger, Composer ...);
- If the Quick Launch feature is enabled, disable it;
- Then restart Netscape 7.x, Mozilla 1.x or Firefox 1.x.
The installation process also installs Java Web Start.
Java Web Start- Compatibility: The release of Java Web Start that comes with this JRE can be run on JRE 1.2.2 or later. It will not work with JRE 1.1.x or earlier.
- Upgrading from Previous Versions: If you have a previous release of Java Web Start, do not uninstall it. Uninstalling it will cause the download cache to be cleared, and all previously installed Java Web Start application data will have to be downloaded again. This new release will overwrite previous installations and automatically update browsers to use this new release. The configuration files and program files folder used by Java Web Start have changed, but all your settings will remain intact after the upgrade, since Java Web Start will translate your settings to the new form.
- Uninstalling: The only way to uninstall Java Web Start is to uninstall the JDK/JRE. Uninstalling the JDK/JRE will not, however, remove the cache for previous releases of Java Web Start. Previous releases have separate uninstallers for Java Web Start.
Note:
You may see a misleading message if you do the following:
You may see a misleading message if you do the following:
- Download and cache a Java Web Start (JNLP) application with JDK/JRE 5.x
- Remove JDK/JRE 5.x using 'Add or Remove Programs' from the Windows Control Panel
- Remove the Java Web Start application using 'Add or Remove Programs.'
When you remove the application, you see an 'Uninstaller Error' dialog saying 'An error occurred while trying to remove Java-Application: <name> App. It may have already been uninstalled. Would you like to remove Java-Application: <name> App from the Add or Remove program list?' If you say yes to this, then you will see another 'Uninstaller Error' dialog saying 'You do not have sufficient access to remove Java-Application: <name> App from the Add or Remove Program list. Please contact your system administrator.' This is the misleading message. It implies that the problem is due to privileges. It is not. The problem is that you have already removed the Java Web Start application when you removed JDK/JRE 5.x, but this is not reflected in the 'Add or Remove Programs' dialog until it is refreshed by pressing F5 or it is closed and reopened.
To avoid seeing this misleading message, either press F5 or close and reopen the dialog. Any Java Web Start application that was downloaded and cached with JDK/JRE 5.x will no longer appear in the list of currently installed programs.
- Using Java Web Start with Netscape 6.x/7.x: For Netscape 6.x/7.x users, setup the Java Web Start MIME type (JNLP) in the Edit->Preferences->Navigator->Helper Applications section. The file extension is
jnlp
; MIME Type isapplication/x-java-jnlp-file
. It should be handled by thejavaws
executable file in your Java Web Start directory. Also note that, due to a problem with the JavaScript in Netscape 6.x/7.x, you must use the non-JavaScript version of the demos page
Java For Windows Xp Professional
Troubleshooting SectionAs part of the research for this, I was looking at one of the options for jlink that allows you to select a virtual machine type, the idea being to reduce the size of the runtime even further. According to the documentation, this is only available for 32-bit versions of the JDK, which Oracle no longer provide for JDK 9 and later.
Azul does provide 32-bit binaries of JDK 9 for Windows and Linux so I thought I would test the option on our Zulu build of the OpenJDK. For things like this, I keep a selection of old Windows images available via VirtualBox (I even have a Windows 2000 image as my son wanted to play an ancient game that wouldn’t work on newer versions).
I fired up Windows XP, downloaded Zulu 9 and ran the usual quick test of
java -version
. Low and behold it wouldn’t work. I got an error message that told me that java.exe was not a valid Win32 executable. After checking I’d downloaded the right version I tried Zulu 8. That worked fine.I assumed we had a build problem so quickly dispatched a message to our engineering team responsible for these builds. It turns out that Windows XP is now just too old for JDK 9. (When I was using XP, I was presented with a useful message informing me that Windows XP would no longer be supported from April 2014!)
As part of the natural order of things when building Zulu 9 for Windows, we had switched from Visual C++ 2010 to the more modern Visual C++ 2013. Because of changes in the way the compilers work to support Windows XP it would be necessary to use Managed Multi-Targeting. To simplify our build procedures, we don’t do this, which is why Zulu 8 would work on Windows XP, whereas Zulu 9 won’t.
I suspect that the number of people looking to run Java SE 9 applications on Windows XP has to be in the range of one: me, and then only for testing. The good news is that Zulu 9 will work quite happily on Windows 7 (and later versions) in both 32 and 64-bit variations.
If you need Windows or Linux 32-bit (or Mac OS X) versions of JDK 9 (and soon JDK 10) you can find them on our website.
