JAVA Downlaod error 1603

[LynnandCarol]

Anyone ever see this error during download. It is on a Win-7 PC. We have not been able to define it!

Java is now used in allot of the interactive games that DW plays. I did get rid of the error via running as the admin. The 1603 error is a common ap download error. There is a 1603 scan app. that I captured but did not need.

I disagree. Many, many sites use java features.

OP- you can uninstall java, then download a new installation.

I've come across very few websites that use JAVA. Most all require Javascript, which is not related to JAVA in any way, shape, or form?

I keep JAVA disabled in my browser and only activate it for one website I use on occasion to test network connections. Otherwise, have not come across other sites that require it.

Some sites do, like educational and banking sites, but most do not. Which sites are you going to that require it?

Java in the browser is an old, dying technology and the sooner it's gone the better.
