Missing javapath folder in ProgramData - JRE8u171

Michael B GMay 7 2018 — edited May 31 2018

Hello.

I'm currently testing JRE 8 Update 171, but I've noticed that the symlinks for java.exe, javaw.exe and javaws.exe in C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath doesn't seem to be created anymore? Actually the entire javapath folder is not created.

Is that expected with this release? I don't see anything in the release note that mentiones this, but I experience it on several machines (all Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x64) and have tried both a manual and silent install with same result.

Thanks in advance.
