Re: This is why I never update...

Hi Greg,

RDi normally brings its own JRE (Java Runtime Environment) with it - there may be several JREs installed in your RDi folder (where RDi.EXE and RDi.INI reside).

Look into the plugins sub-folder, and look if that particular JRE plugin is installed.

If not - edit the RDi.INI file, to point to the latest JRE plugin available. Or install Amazons Corretto JDK and point to the folder where that is - it always has to be the JAVAW.EXE file (in the bin sub-folder or the JRE/JDK) but without the ".EXE" extension - IIRC.

HTH and kind regards,
Daniel

I can no longer open RDi after doing the update. It really should not be this difficult!!!

I was on v9.8.0.1 and did the help, check for updates... updated that way.

When it tried to restart I received a LARGE window where I could not see the bottom of it. I closed it and tried to open RDi.

"A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) must be available in order to run RDi. No Java virtual machine was found after searching the following locations: plugins/com.ibm.semeru.certified.jdk.x64.windows_9.8.4.202412070822/jdk/bin/javaw"

No clue what this means.

Now what??
