The registry refers to a nonexistent java runtime environment как исправить - Исправление недочетов и поиск решений вместе с Examum.ru

Some users report getting the “registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment” error when trying to open certain application executables. Most affected users report that this issue started to occur abruptly ( they where previously able to run the same executable without issues).

The registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment installation or the runtime is corrupted.
The system cannot find the path specified

What is causing the “registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment” error

We investigated the issue by trying to replicate the issue and looking at various user reports. This particular error message is an indicator that you have remnants from an old Java installation in your Registry editor.

Based on what we found, there are several common scenarios that will lead to the apparition of this issue:

The Registry contains entries that don’t lead to the actual Java path – This typically occurs if you move the software to a different directory (manually) after the initial installation. The issue can be rectified by manually removing the registry entries that don’t correspond manually.
Incomplete or corrupted Java Installation – Several users have managed to resolve this particular issue by uninstalling Java and then re-installing the JDK. User speculation suggests that a corrupted file or glitch might have caused this.

If you’re currently struggling to resolve this particular issue, this article will provide you with a collection of verified troubleshooting steps. Below you have several methods that other users in a similar situation have successfully used to resolve the issue.

For the best results, follow the methods below in order until you encounter a fix that resolves the problem in your particular scenario. Let’s begin!

Method 1: Removing inexistent registry entries for JavaHome and RuntimeLib

Several users encountering the same issue have managed to get the issue resolved by removing those JavaHome and RuntimeLib registry entries that don’t refer to an existent path.

Every JavaHome variable should refer to a path similar to binclientjvm.dll while each RuntimeLib should refer to an existent jvm.dll file. But because this issue occurs, you might find one or multiple variables that do not have the corresponding path or file.

This might happen if you recently removed the software to another directory after you installed it. If you manage to find any registry variables, you’ll need them to remove them manually.

This procedure will require some manual work and a small amount of technical expertize, but it might allow you to resolve the issue without having to re-install the whole Java Runtime Environment. If you are prepared to go through with it, we have prepared a step by step guide through the whole thing. Here’s what you need to do:

Press Windows key + R to open up a Run dialog box. Then, type “regedit” and press Enter to open up the Registry Editor. When prompted by the UAC (User Account Control), click Yes at the prompt.
Run dialog: regedit
Inside the Registry Editor, use the left pane to navigate to the following location:
```
Computer  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE  SOFTWARE  JavaSoft  Java Runtime  Environment
```
Once you get there, select the first Java version located in the Java Runtime Environment folder and move over to the right pane.
In the right pane, double-click on JavaHome and copy the entire Value data path to your clipboard.
Copying the JavaHome path from Registry Editor
Open-File Explorer and paste the location you’ve previously copied in the navigation bar. If the location leads somewhere, it means that the registry value has a corresponding path. If it doesn’t lead you anywhere, it means that the registry refers to a non-existent Java installation and it should be deleted.
Verifying registry value for the corresponding path
Note: If the Value data path dosen’t lead you anywhere, right-click on JavaHome and click Delete to get rid of the registry entry.

Deleting the Registry entry with a non-corresponding installation path
Once JavaHome has been taken cared off, double-click on RuntimeLib and copy the Value data path in your clipboard.
Copy the Value data of RuntimeLib to the clipboard
Same as before, open a File Explorer window and past the path you previously copied in the navigation bar. But this time, remove the last part “jvm.dll” before pressing Enter.
Verifying if the Runtimelib has a corresponding path
Note: If you find a corresponding path, it means that the RuntimeLib registry value is functioning correctly. In the event that you get a message saying that Windows is unable to find the path, the registry value refers to a non-existent Java installation and needs to be removed. In this case, right-click on RuntimeLib and choose Delete to get rid of the value.

Example of a non-existent registry path
Once the first Java Runtime Environment version has been dealt with, repeat steps 4 to 7 with every Java version that you have left under Java Runtime Environment.
Repeating the same procedure with the remaining Java versions
Once all registry entries have been verified and addressed, close Registry Editor and restart your machine and see if the error has been resolved at the next startup.

If this method was not successful or you’re simply looking for a more simple fix, move down to the next method below.

Method 2: Uninstalling Java and installing the Java JDK

If you’re encountering this issue when trying to launch Minecraft or a similar application that relies on the JDK, you might be able to resolve the issue by uninstalling the whole Java environment and then re-installing the JDK (Java Development Kit).

Here’s a quick guide on how to do this:

Press Windows key + R to open up a Run dialog box. Then, type “appwiz.cpl” and press Enter to open up Programs and Features.
Run dialog: appwiz.cpl
Inside Programs and Features, click on the Publisher column, then scroll down to the entries published by Oracle Corporation.
Next, proceed to uninstall every Java installation (or update) by right-clicking on each entry and clicking Uninstall. Then, follow the on-screen prompts to complete the uninstallation with each entry.
Uninstalling every Java installation
Once you uninstall the Java environment completely, restart your computer.
At the next startup, visit this link (here) and click on on the Download button.
Click on the JDK download button
In the next screen, scroll down to Java SE Development Kit and click the toggle associated with Accept Licence Agreement. Then, click on the executable download link associated with Windows.
Downloading the JDK installer
Open the JDK installer and follow the on-screen prompts to install the JDK environment on your PC. Restart your computer if not automatically prompted to do so when the process is complete.
At the next startup, you should be able to start the application without encountering the “registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment” error.

I got windows 10 some days ago but when I tried to run an application (.exe), it gave
the following error message

the registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment instalation or the runtime is corrupted.
The system cannot find the path specified.

Does anyone knows how to fix this, I assume that I have to change something in the environment variables, but I cannot find good information about it for windows 10.

This happens because you have some entries in your registry which point at invalid paths.

Check the enabled Java Runtime versions from the Java Control Panel(java tab under the Java Control Panel).
Delete the other jre(not jdk) version’s from the Java installation directory (mostly C:Program FilesJava).
Open the registry editor ( Win+R then type in
regedit ).
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment1.x(here x is the jre version).
Verify the paths(values) of the JavaHome key under each folder of 1.x whether they are actually present under the given directory.

You’ll find some invalid entries there, just delete those entries (corresponding folder under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment) and reinstall your exe application.

I had the same issue recently when trying to run freemind. the way i solved it in win10 was this:

Using OO RegEdit I searched for java runtime environment and found it under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWOW6432NodeJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment

rather than all the places that other articles mention for win7 ….etc.

I removed the invalid entries for jre7 and the app started working immediately. HTH

I’m currently having an issue with playing Minecraft. I played Minecraft perfectly before I had an issue with my computer.
Now when I open the minecraft.exe file (or try to open Java itself from the start menu) it says there is a problem with Java:

The registry refers to a non-existent Java Runtime Environment installation or the runtime is corrupted. The system cannot find the path specified

I re-installed Java but it seems there is a problem with my windows installer:

«Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.»

I tried to reinstall the Windows Installation service however this says there is not enough space (even though I have about 12GB free on my hard drive). I’m not sure if this is the correct file I’m trying to install but I thought it was worth a shot.

Here’s what I did on Windows 7:

Open the registry editor (regedit.exe) using an administrator account.

Go to ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment

For each version under this path, verify if the paths for the JavaHome and RuntimeLib variables are correct.
RuntimeLib should refer to an existent jvm.dll file,
JavaHome should be the start of this path with the binclientjvm.dll part removed.

If you have multiple versions in the registry and you do not have a corresponding java version on your disk for one of them, remove the superfluous registry entry.

If the correspondinig java version is at another location on your disk, update the paths.
For each version of Java you have, you need to do this twice (once for the particular build you have (example 1.7.0_04) and once for the base version (example 1.7).
Mine (but take care, I installed to a custom location) are:

JavaHome C:javajre
RuntimeLib C:javajre7binjvm.dll

I got the error because I moved the software to another directory after installation.

Try renaming the .exe to a .jar
People are having this same issue and this seems to solve it.

Once you’ve tried that, remove every instance of Java you have and reinstall with a package from Java’s website. Make sure it’s the right architecture (32-64 bit). Try removing Java with the Windows Cleanup Utility, then reboot, the reinstall.

EDIT: Come to think of it, back when I ran windows a similar thing happened to me. Try upgrading to the latest version of Windows Installer. If you’re already at the latest, try reinstalling.

My workstation is Win 7 64 bit.

Solution for me was to change all references of

C:Program FilesJava...

C:Program Files (x86)Java...

in the registry path

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoft

My actual installed path and registry entries did not match.

2 Способ 1: удаление несуществующих записей реестра для JavaHome и RuntimeLib
3 Способ 2. Удаление Java и установка Java JDK

Некоторые пользователи сообщают о получении «Реестр ссылается на несуществующую среду выполнения Java»Ошибка при попытке открыть определенные исполняемые файлы приложения. Большинство затронутых пользователей сообщают, что эта проблема начала возникать внезапно (раньше они могли запускать один и тот же исполняемый файл без проблем).

Реестр ссылается на несуществующую установку Java Runtime Environment или среда выполнения повреждена.
Система не может найти указанный путь

Что вызывает «Реестр ссылается на несуществующую среду выполнения Java» ошибка

Мы исследовали проблему, пытаясь воспроизвести проблему и просматривая различные пользовательские отчеты. Это конкретное сообщение об ошибке указывает на то, что у вас есть остатки от старой установки Java в вашем редакторе реестра.

Исходя из того, что мы обнаружили, есть несколько распространенных сценариев, которые приведут к появлению этой проблемы:

Реестр содержит записи, которые не ведут к фактическому пути Java — Обычно это происходит, если вы переместите программное обеспечение в другой каталог (вручную) после первоначальной установки. Проблема может быть устранена путем удаления записей реестра, которые не соответствуют вручную.
Неполная или поврежденная установка Java — Некоторым пользователям удалось решить эту конкретную проблему, удалив Java, а затем повторно установив JDK. Предположение пользователя предполагает, что это могло быть вызвано поврежденным файлом или сбоями.

Если вы в настоящее время пытаетесь решить эту конкретную проблему, эта статья предоставит вам набор проверенных шагов по устранению неполадок. Ниже у вас есть несколько методов, которые другие пользователи в аналогичной ситуации успешно использовали для решения этой проблемы.

Для достижения наилучших результатов следуйте приведенным ниже методам, пока не встретите исправление, решающее проблему в вашем конкретном сценарии. Давай начнем!

Способ 1: удаление несуществующих записей реестра для JavaHome и RuntimeLib

Несколько пользователей, столкнувшихся с той же проблемой, смогли решить проблему, удалив те JAVAHOME а также RuntimeLib записи реестра, которые не ссылаются на существующий путь.

каждый JAVAHOME переменная должна ссылаться на путь sИмилар в bin client jvm.dll в то время как каждый RuntimeLib должен ссылаться на существующийt jvm.dll файл. Но поскольку эта проблема возникает, вы можете найти одну или несколько переменных, которые не имеют соответствующего пути или файла.

Это может произойти, если вы недавно удалили программное обеспечение в другой каталог после его установки. Если вам удастся найти какие-либо переменные реестра, они понадобятся вам, чтобы удалить их вручную.

Эта процедура потребует некоторой ручной работы и небольшого количества технических знаний, но она может позволить вам решить проблему, не переустанавливая весь Java Runtime Environment. Если вы готовы пройти через это, мы подготовили пошаговое руководство по всему. Вот что вам нужно сделать:

Нажмите Windows ключ + R открыть Бежать диалоговое окно. Затем введите «смерзатьсяИ нажмите Войти открыть редактор реестра. По подсказке UAC (контроль учетных записей), щелчок да по подсказке.
Диалог запуска: regedit
В редакторе реестра используйте левую панель, чтобы перейти к следующему местоположению:
```
Компьютер  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE  SOFTWARE  JavaSoft  Java Runtime Environment
```
Как только вы туда доберетесь, выберите первую версию Java, расположенную в папке Java Runtime Environment, и перейдите на правую панель.
На правой панели дважды щелкните JAVAHOME и скопировать весь Значение данные путь к вашему буферу обмена.
Копирование пути JavaHome из редактора реестра
Откройте проводник и вставьте ранее скопированное местоположение в панель навигации. Если местоположение куда-то ведет, это означает, что значение реестра имеет соответствующий путь. Если он никуда вас не ведет, это означает, что реестр ссылается на несуществующую установку Java и его следует удалить.
Проверка значения реестра для соответствующего пути
Замечания: Если Значение данных путь никуда вас не приведет, щелкните правой кнопкой мыши на JavaHome и выберите удалять избавиться от записи реестра.

Удаление записи реестра с несоответствующим путем установки
однажды JAVAHOME позаботился о двойном клике RuntimeLib и скопировать Значение данных путь в вашем буфере обмена.
Скопируйте данные значения RuntimeLib в буфер обмена
Как и раньше, откройте окно проводника и пройдите путь, который вы ранее скопировали на панели навигации. Но на этот раз удалите последнюю частьjvm.dllПеред нажатием Войти.
Проверка наличия у Runtimelib соответствующего пути
Замечания: Если вы найдете соответствующий путь, это означает, что значение реестра RuntimeLib работает правильно. Если вы получаете сообщение о том, что Windows не может найти путь, значение реестра относится к несуществующей установке Java и должно быть удалено. В этом случае щелкните правой кнопкой мыши на RuntimeLib и выбрать удалять избавиться от стоимости.

Пример несуществующего пути в реестре
После обработки первой версии Java Runtime Environment повторите шаги 4–7 для каждой версии Java, оставленной в Java Runtime Environment.
Повторение той же процедуры с остальными версиями Java
После того, как все записи реестра будут проверены и исправлены, закройте редактор реестра и перезагрузите компьютер и посмотрите, была ли ошибка устранена при следующем запуске.

Если этот метод не удался или вы просто ищете более простое исправление, перейдите к следующему способу ниже.

Способ 2. Удаление Java и установка Java JDK

Если вы столкнулись с этой проблемой при попытке запустить Minecraft или подобное приложение, использующее JDK, вы можете решить эту проблему, удалив всю среду Java, а затем переустановив JDK (Java Development Kit).

Вот краткое руководство о том, как это сделать:

Нажмите Windows ключ + R открыть Бежать диалоговое окно. Затем введите «appwiz.cplИ нажмите Войти открыть Программы и особенности.
Диалог запуска: appwiz.cpl
внутри Программы и особенности, нажми на издатель затем прокрутите вниз до записей, опубликованных Корпорация Oracle.
Затем приступите к удалению каждой установки (или обновления) Java, щелкнув правой кнопкой мыши на каждой записи и выбрав Удалить. Затем следуйте инструкциям на экране для завершения удаления с каждой записью.
Удаление каждой установки Java
Как только вы полностью удалите среду Java, перезагрузите компьютер.
При следующем запуске перейдите по этой ссылке (Вот) и нажмите на Скачать кнопка.
Нажмите на кнопку загрузки JDK
На следующем экране прокрутите вниз до Java SE Development Kit и щелкните переключатель, связанный с Принять лицензионное соглашение. Затем нажмите на ссылку для загрузки исполняемого файла, связанную с Windows.
Загрузка установщика JDK
Откройте установщик JDK и следуйте инструкциям на экране, чтобы установить среду JDK на свой ПК. Перезагрузите компьютер, если автоматически не будет предложено сделать это после завершения процесса.
При следующем запуске вы сможете запустить приложение, не встречаяРеестр ссылается на несуществующую среду выполнения Java» ошибка.
