(To be SAFE, copy the content of the "Variable value" to Notepad before changing it!!!) (CAUTION: Read this paragraph 3 times before doing this step! Don't push "Apply" or "OK" until you are 101% sure. Click "New" ⇒ Enter the JDK's binary directory " c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_ xx\bin" (Replace xx with your installation number!!!) ⇒ Select "Move Up" to move this entry all the way to the TOP. You shall see a TABLE listing all the existing PATH entries (if not, goto next step).

To edit the PATH environment variable in Windows 7/8/10: You need to include " \bin" in the PATH to run the JDK programs.

JDK's programs (such as Java compiler javac.exe and Java runtime java.exe) reside in directory " \bin" (where denotes the JDK installed directory). Windows Shell searches the current directory and the directories listed in the PATH environment variable ( system variable) for executable programs. Step 3: Include JDK's " bin" Directory in the PATH I shall refer to the JDK installed directory as, hereafter, in this article.
#Mac os jdk upgrade#
Take note of your JDK installed directory, in particular, the upgrade number, which you will need in the next step.
#Mac os jdk install#
By default, the JDK will be installed in directory " C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_ xx", where xx denotes the upgrade number and JRE in " C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_ xx".Īccept the defaults and follow the screen instructions to install JDK and JRE.Ĭheck the JDK installed directory by inspecting these folders using File Explorer.

If you have previously installed older version(s) of JDK/JRE, un-install ALL of them. Although you can install multiple versions of JDK/JRE concurrently, it is messy. I recommend that you install only the latest JDK.

JDK (Java Development Kit), which includes JRE plus the development tools (such as compiler and debugger), is need for writing as well as running Java programs. JRE (Java Runtime) is needed for running Java programs. Java Development Kit (JDK), officially named "Java Platform Standard Edition ( Java SE)", which is freely available from Sun Microsystems (now part of Oracle), is needed for writing Java programs.
