INSTRUCTIONS FOR UNINSTALLING JAVA

The instructions below will help you manually remove a version of Java.

The instructions below are to remove a single version of Java from your system.
If you would like to remove more than one version please repeat the steps for
each version you want to remove.

Note: You should only follow these instructions if you personally own the system
in question. For Company-owned systems please contact your company for
instructions.

Removing all versions of Java might cause some applications to stop working. We
would recommend installing an up-to-date JRE to run Java applications and
contacting the application vendor if some application will not run with the most
current version.

You can uninstall Java in the same way as you would uninstall any other software
from your computer. You may need administrator privileges to remove programs.

Java may appear in the program list as J2SE, Java 2, Java SE or Java Runtime
Environment.

MACOS

Note: To uninstall Java, you must have Administrator privileges and execute the
remove command either as root or by using sudo.

Remove one directory and one file (a symlink), as follows:

 1. Click on the Finder icon located in your dock
 2. Click on Go in the Finder menu
 3. Click on Utilities
 4. Double-click on the Terminal icon

    sudo rm -fr /Library/PreferencePanes/JavaControlPanel.prefPane
    sudo rm -fr ~/Library/Application\ Support/Oracle/Java

Do not attempt to uninstall Java by removing the Java tools from /usr/bin. This
directory is part of the system software and any changes will be reset by Apple
the next time you perform an update of the OS.

After removing Java, we also recommend that you clear the Java Deployment Cache.
