As far as I can tell, there has not been any manual modifications of
file associations on both Windows machines, i.e. only bulk-standard
JDK / JRE (un)installations have ever been performed.
Thanks for the pointers - I will have a look at the JIRA issue.
Although I confirm that this has nothing to do with JavaFX?
JavaFX installer does not do anything in respect to .jar associations.
They are only updated by JRE installer.
In that case user also installed 7u4 JREs.

This sounds like the same issue reported in JavaFX context:
http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-21194
At this point we are not clear how this can happen (except user creating
manual association at some point)
and we only seen few reports so far.
Please follow troubleshooting steps there to provide us more information.
In particular validate you do not have .jar association settings in the HKCU
branch.
Please add details to the same JIRA issue,

Hi there,
I have tried JDK 7u4 (32/64-bit) and JRE 7u4 (32-bit), on a Win7 (x64)
box and a WinXP (32-bit) box, and after installation all .jar
association has been removed.
So now I cannot double-click any JAR files in Windows Explorer to run
them. I previously had 7u2 on the Win7 box and 6u31 on the WinXP box,
and they were working okay.
This is of course rather annoying - I would like to know if this is
just me or have I missed something important?
Alex.
