How to set path for Jre 6 when jre 7 installed?

Question

I am programming through java 1.6 u_17, but i have JRE version 6 and JRE version 7 installed, so how to run my compiled program from JDK 1.6 to run through the JRE 6 only?<

Answer 1

I had same problem. Issue is that Java installation will copy a java.exe, javaw.exe and javaws.exe to windows/system32 directory. You must have installed JDK7 recently.

I just removed those files from Windows/System32 directory, however, kept older version in path. This solved the issue.

Try it out.
