FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.8.0_112"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_112-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.112-b15, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.14393]

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
RES ONE Workspace

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When our application is started on a Windows computer where the system administrator has used RES ONE Workspace to revoke rights to create folders in C:\ProgramData and to run the Windows ICACLS.EXE command line tool users receive a security warning that running ICACLS.EXE is prohibited.

Investigating with Process Monitor (*) shows that the JRE attempts to create the folder C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\.oracle_jre_usage. That fails because the rights have been revoked, but the JRE attempts to launch ICACLS.EXE to anyway.

REGRESSION. Last worked in version 8u92

ADDITIONAL REGRESSION INFORMATION:
java version "1.8.0_60"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
In an elevated command prompt, remove user rights over C:\ProgramData and start Process Monitor:

C:\>icacls ProgramData /remove builtin\users
processed file: ProgramData
Successfully processed 1 files; Failed processing 0 files

C:\>procmon

In another, non-admin, non-elevated command prompt:
C:\>java -version

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I would expect the Process Monitor output to contain a single failed attempt to create C:\ProgramData\Oracle, no other attempts to create folders below that, and especially no attempts to use ICACLS.EXE to manipulate folders and files that could not be created in the first place.
ACTUAL -
After a failed attempt to create C:\ProgramData\Oracle, attempts follow to create folders C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java, C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\.oracle_jre_usage. After that ICACLS is run specifying the non-existing C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\.oracle_jre_usage as a parameter. Also an attempt is made to create C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\.oracle_jre_usage\5726f39adf56d625.timestamp.

On systems managed with RES ONE Workspace the end user sees an alarming security warning about ICACLS.EXE.
