Hi everyone,
In another thread in this forum, I have writen about how I completely could remove JRE from my system.
In the thread I told that I have found the following registry keys on my Windows 7 64-bit operating system:
1. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JavaScript
2. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JavaScript Author
3. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JavaScript1.2 Author
4. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JavaScript1.3
5. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JavaScript1.3 Author
6. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\PROTOCOLS\Handler\javascript
7. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Handler\javascript
8. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\JavaPlugin.1010
9. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\JavaScript
10. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\JavaScript Author
11. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\JavaScript1.2 Author
12. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\JavaScript1.3
13. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\JavaScript1.3 Author.

When I take a look on my Windows XP Service Pack 3 operating system, I can not find the same keys in the Windows registry database, and I therefore will ask about the following questions:
1. It is correct that the keys above only is on Windows 7 64-bit's registry?
If the keys also should be on Windows XP Service Pack 3, how can I install the keys again?
I have tried to reinstall Internet Explorer 8, but the keys not came back again.
2. After I have reinstalled Internet Explorer 8 I can find a option called "Use JRE 1.6.0_12 for <applet> (requires restart)" if I go to Internet options>advanced. I have not installed a JRE on my Windows XP, since I will make a installation of the latest JRE from scratch.
2. It is posible to remove the option above (e.g. via the Windows Registry editor), so the latest JRE can add the option again to Internet Explorer 8?
Very thanks for the answers, and happy new year.
Regards,
Anders
