Hello,
I have the latest JRE (1.6.24) installed on my machine. I just updated to OpenOffice 3.3.0 (OOO330m20 (Build:9567)). The update installed JRE 1.6.22. If I remove JRE 1.6.22, will OpenOffice still work? Thanks, Stuart Altman. Here’s what I saw regarding old versions (from http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/remove_olderversions.xml) *Should I remove older versions of Java?* We highly recommend users remove all older versions of Java from your system. Keeping old and unsupported versions of Java on your system presents a serious security risk. Removing older versions of Java from your system ensures that Java applications will run with the most up-to-date security and performance improvements on your system. *How can I remove older versions of Java?* You can safely remove older versions of Java from your system by following the instructions on Java uninstallation instructions for Windows<http://www.java.com/en/download/help/uninstall_java.xml>page. *Do I need older versions of Java?* The latest available version is always compatible with the older versions. However, some Java applications (or applets) can indicate that they are dependent on a particular version, and may not run if you do not have that version installed. If an application or web page you access requires an older version of Java, you should report this to the provider/developer and request that they update the application to be compatible with all Java versions. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help
