I made a big mistake by deleteing java from portions of the windows registry.
Now I need to fool windows and run one of three JRE versions.
How can I do this?
Any on-line documentations would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Make a bat file for each version that you may want to run. In this file define the path and classpath that you want to use right then.
Of course you will have to run one of these bat files EVERY time you start a session - but it does let you control which JRE that you are using.
