Javasup.vxd error message after installing Java Plug-in 1.3.1_01a

XMLWordPrintable

    • x86
    • windows_nt

      Environment is PII,Win98,IE6.

      As you know, the Java equivalent download at the Microsoft site fails! The
      Java download at your site also failed to run on my machine until I first
      followed Microsoft procedure referenced in Q255848 "How to Manually
      Uninstall and Reinstall Microsoft Virtual Machine" procedure to remove old
      Java files. Then, downloading Java from your site (not from Microsoft which
      still failed) did result in Java running as it did before I upgraded IE5 to
      IE6.

      My problem is that I get an annoying message at boot up which requires
      manual entry (to continue boot up) that references a missing file called
      Javasup.vxd which was one of many indicated to be deleted. The Microsoft
      version of Java, which does not work, does replace this file so that no
      boot up error occurs. Apearently, the version of Java downloaded from your
      site, which does work, does not have such a file; hence the boot up error.

      My question is can I delele the three references to Javasup.vxd in the
      Registry? Is there a way to "Rem" registry entries as was possible in W95
      (rem or ;)? What do you suggest.

      Thanks in advance ... and it is great to have Java running again!
