Java Install?

Troubleshooting Java 7 install on WinXP Pro SP3 machine and noticed a "JRE" folder within "C:\Program Files\NETGEAR ReadyNAS". Java.exe indicates version 7.0.0.147.

Is this a "dedicated" install for NetGear support only?

  • Thanks for the reply.

    Is this install of Java strictly for RAIDar?

    Asking because attempt to "globally" install Java results in the following (and I'll paraphrase); "Software already installed, Re-install, Y/N?" -> "Y" -> "This action only valid for currently installed products" And the install aborts. Strange!

    Java web "Test" reports Java NOT installed.

    AFAIK it is only for RAIDar. If RAIDar runs you should be ok. I wouldn't attempt to "globally" install it, since it is not the newest version.
