Help Me! Java Runtime error

[Meowcenary]

Welp, looks like I'm back with more computer problems

I had a Java update so I downloaded it. Shortly after when I went to play a Java based game or when I see anything that needs Java to run in Firefox, it tells me to download a missing plugin. I tried downloading the missing plugin but I keep getting this after it finishes downloading

I tried using the 'manual install' but it just brings me to Java's website and says I still need to install the missing plugin

I tried looking around on Google but couldn't find anything about this. Anyone might know how I can fix this?

Edit -

After looking around it seems like some others may be having the same problem as me

I think it might be a buggy update. What might help is look around for the last version of java you had and use that untill you can find out what might be causing the problem or what bugs might still need to be worked out.

Just a friendly tip when your computer tells you there is an update for any thing don't up date until you read about it and see what other people are saying about it. It keeps some of the problems like your having from showing up.

Java was being weird for me today as well.

Java was being weird for me today as well.

My brother Caleb64156 was trying to play mine-craft with me on one of the servers I had made and his java was crashing like crazy. I told him to re download it or get the older version of it and see if that would fix the crashing. One of the two seemed to work because he stopped crashing and was able to play any java related games.

I would recommend the same for you guys if you are still having the problem.
