Hi, I can not uninstall netbeans. It says it wants me to find a java

If you are/were using netbeans but don't know what a JVM is then you are
doing the right thing by uninstalling netbeans.
The runtime environment provides the java virtual machine. The JVM is
denoted by the javaw.exe or java.exe process that you see running in
your task manager on Windows which is actually running your program.
Also, I have the java runtime environment, v 1.4.2_04, but I also have
J2SE runtime environment updates 7 and 9. I would like to get rid of
verything,
So go into add/remove programs and remove the ones you don't want. If
that doesn't work then delete their installation folders.
but keep a java runtime environment for web use.
Which one is the one you downloaded to use for your browser? XP doesn't
include a JRE the last time I checked (been a while though) so you would
had to have downloaded your own. Which one did you get?
At this
point I think I just need to delete netbeans but it won't let me,
thanks if you know what to do.
