If you really don't have shortcut to "Configure Java" in the menu start, then run directly this Java Panel by accessing C:\Program Files\Java\jreJAVA_VERSION\bin\javacpl.exe or C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jreJAVA_VERSION\bin\javacpl.exe
If you only have jdk installed, then C:\Program Files\Java\jdkJAVA_VERSION\jre\bin\javacpl.exe
You can click on Search present on taskbar or press Ctrl + Q.
Search "Configure Java" and click on it.
That should open the Java Control Panel.
Right-click on the Start button and select the Control Panel option. In the Windows Control Panel, click on Programs. Click on the Java icon to open the Java Control Panel.
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.
