mike ryan wrote:Hi Don,
I had this same problem not too long ago, I deleted the Java folder instead of using the uninstaller.
Take a look at this thread, maybe it will help...
look here
mike ryan wrote:hi don,
click this link here --->this one
don't click anything, wait untill you get the pop-up to download,it comes automatically.Then you can use that program to get rid of the java programs in the control panel.
If you look in the control panel where you can install uninstall software, you will see the folders you deleted are still showing in there, those need to go(using the tool you downloaded).After
that you can do a fresh install and everything should work.
hope this helps
Mike

The only thing i can think of is that there are still old folders with data in them, I would suggest doing a search and finding all the "java(tm) 6 Update22" folders and delete them,you may have to open the different folders and delete each file in it to have it fully deleted, or just change the name of it if you can't get rid of it properly.Then run the program again and see if they go then.

Not that I don't trust Mike, but I would NEVER download and run an unknown executable that someone on the Internet that you don't know says you should download and run - especially not in administrator mode! It could contain a virus and screw up your entire computer.

Here's what Oracle itself has to say about it: Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows installer package. Unfortunately even they seem to not know at this time what the exact cause of this error is. If I'd guess, I'd think that the installer package you are trying to use is corrupt, or you are not using the right version that matches your Windows version. Try downloading it again from http://java.sun.com/javase

Well it does suck i know the feeling, but i actually think it is fairly rare..if that helps at all and i am also not certain if it is a Windows problem or a Java problem but either way it should be fixed.
I sent you a PM by the way in case you didn't see it;)

Try to install any program which uses windows installer if it is installed correctly then you have to have correct Java version designed for your platform system installed.
if it is not so->
- Go to Control Panel and click on Administrative Tools, then double click on Computer Management.
- Expand the Services & Applications menu item.
- Double-click Services.
- Double-click Windows Installer and stop the service.
- Launch regedit from run.
- Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSIServer.
- Select the MSIServer subkey.
- Delete this key value.
- Go to microsoft.com and re download the latest version of Windows Installer accoding to your operating system.
if program is installed successfully then you have to uninstall java and reinstall it according to platform you are using.To uninstall any older versions of Java, you can make use of JavaRA – a simple software that removes old, unnecessary and redundant versions of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
Here is a link-
javaRA
thinking it might help you or google for it!
then download the new version from java.sun.com.

It's a shot in the dark, but one thing you could try is to temporarily disable UAC when you install Java.

Jesper de Jong wrote:Where exactly did you download your Java from?
The official download page is here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
The most current release version at this moment is Java SE 6 update 23.
Note that there are also early access releases of Java 7, but that is not officially released yet (it will be released at the end of July 2011). Don't use Java 7 yet unless you just want to try out the newest features.

or from someone who really doesn't know what Java is.
Visit the Java website and download the offline installation file for the Java software. If you install the file offline rather than through the Java website, you can circumvent the Windows Installer Java problems you are experiencing.
