Unfortunately, that still (eventually) leaves your users with the wretched "Your JRE is out of date" message. There's no alternative but to create the deployment files and deploy them using a transform against the extracted MSI. - anonymous_9363 7 years ago

Script

WORKS with all versions of java

Hello, i prefer to script the update of java because i can inform people on her computer to close our java applications in our company.

So when they click to update, i force close the applications if needed then use the exe given by sun.

Than, for the installation, i prefer to use a java.settings.cfg file created by myself.

Here the java.settings.cfg

INSTALL_SILENT=1
WEB_ANALYTICS=0
AUTO_UPDATE=0
WEB_JAVA=1
EULA=0
REBOOT=0
SPONSORS=0
REMOVEOUTOFDATEJRES=1

Then i inform people they can continue to work with java applications.

Best regards
