Visit and download the Windows Offline ( 32-bit) installer.Ģ. If you’ve experienced this, or don’t want to in the future, here is the list of steps I use whenever I need to update the plugin (like today when I deposited a check from the comfort of my computer by scanning it in). But Chrome is a 32-bit application and couldn’t see the updated plugin and would continue to insist I needed to update the plugin. I kept running into problems with the installation because the Java plugin auto-installer would detect Windows 7 64-bit and install the 64-bit version of the Java plugin. However, if you use sites that require the Java plugin, such as USAA’s, DinkyTown Financial Calculators or even the official US time, the java plugin is a necessary evil. The Java browser plugin has a sordid security history and you’re better off uninstalling it entirely if you don’t need it. In order for the below instructions to work, you can re-enable NPAPI by pasting this URL into Chrome: chrome://flags/#enable-npapi, enabling NPAPI support, and restarting Chrome. This effectively disables the Java plugin. Should work fine but someone should test it for me (Beta or Dev only, link to themes is on the new tab page with a fresh profile).Update As of Chrome version 42, NPAPI has been disabled by default.

Here's a good Java test page to see if it's working. Plugins will be automatically installed into Google Chrome Portable if it is detected (and if you didn't already install them). If you're not an admin local Java should still function.Īnd all this only happens if you have a PortableApps\CommonFiles\Java set up. Can't be helped, it's how Java stores its settings. You need to be an administrator (IE have write privileges to HKLM\SOFTWARE) for Portable Java to work. Not a huge problem I guess, it still seems to work even without a local Java. If there is a newer version of the JavaVM installed locally the plugin somehow manages to find it and use it, even if the registry entries pointing to it are deleted (though it still uses the Portable Java JAR files and other resources).

Like the changelog says Java is a bit wonky.

Select from Stable, Beta, or Dev branches.

No thanks to buggy file enumeration functions in NSIS.

Eliminated the need for version.txt, version is now detected automatically.

If not the Portable Java should be utilized.

even if there are no references in the registry to it.

Attempted to add Portable Java support, but it seems Java will still use a higher-version locally installed Java if it finds one.

Should probably be dev test 2 but the version numbers changed so meh. "Maybe" because I can't fully figure out how the Java plugin works and I need more testing.
