Java Control Panel
On Microsoft Windows, if both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Java are installed, this panel is not available. In this event, you have to launch the Java Control Panel directly from the 32-bit directory command line (C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\javacpl.exe).

r/javahelp on Reddit: Can't find Java control panel
June 4, 2022 -

When I go to the control panel, I click programs and when I click Java, it says application not found. Please help. the reason I wanted it was because I needed to update my java version and when I go to the command prompt and run java --version , it shows the un-changed version from before I downloaded it from the Oracle website. I don't really know anything about this stuff and it really confuses me. I could open it before this happened too, and I did the JAVA_HOME thing but it didn't seem to do anything. When I went to open the panel again, it gave me the error.

You said you did the JAVA_HOME thing, what exactly did you do?
