Java 8 71 update tries to install a new support tool?

I received a window indicating I should install a new version of Java. During the installation, a window came "update Java 8 71 trying to install a new tool of assistance." I went on the Oracle web site to learn more, and he says: "Oracle has partnered with companies that offer different products. The Setup program can offer you the option to install these programs when you install Java. Specify whether you want these programs installed, and then click Next. " At this time, I canceled the installation, since I started to worry that allowing the"Helper"install could infect my system. Thus according to 'I'm still 66 update on Java (System Preferences/Java). My question is, someone knows it more on the 'Helper', and should I allow to install? Thank you.

BTW, I went to get the .dmg file in the case where I have to re - install and can't find it. I expect it to be in the downloads folder but not so much. Where should I look for it? Thank you!

Yes, you can allow it. However, if you do not use Java or applications that need it, then you need not to install Java.

  • Install macOS that Sierra is trying to add a new support tool

    When you try to install macOS Sierra I get a popup asking for my password that says "install macOS that Sierra is trying to add a new support tool". I have never had this with the previous updates and research of these discussions and more generally on Google pulls a vacuum. Is it safe to put my admin password in and proceed with the installation?

    I can tell that you have no option to move forward.

    Is it safe? We can only assume, if you trust the big Apple.

  • I am trying to install a new printer, but I get "due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall settings? Can anyone help?

    I am trying to install a new printer, and to do that I know I have to disable firewall settings. I try, but I get "due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall settings? Can anyone help?

    I tried to go into Windows and change the settings of the firewall, but I get the same message.

    I also tried to run an update of the Windows security updates, but same message.

    I use Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3

    Any help would be greatly appreciated?

    Thank you

    HI Maria/Winston.Not, trying to be coy but. I've never had close the firewall to load anything. It will be, or at least should invite you to make a choice to leave the program to run or not? Nevertheless.If you have windows activation hurt you firewall can reactivate manually without going through the bugs that you can not. If you click Start and choose the runtime application. Type cmd, and then press ENTER. When the command prompt box appears type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes. He'll say firewall reactivated and ask for a reboot. Restart the computer and it will be active again. Just trying to help.

    Hi Winston/Hewlit,

    Thank you both for your advice.
    While waiting for your answers, I pushed all sorts of buttons and downloaded all kinds of programs in the hope that I could break the firewall (Hewlit the printer I tried to install says to disable the firewall to install the printer, and then turn it back on?).
    After a reboot, the message 'corrupt windows\system32 etc' file came and asked me to put in the original disc of Windows XP, I did not.
    Cut a long story short, I have now booked for a technician to come out as I'm totally lost.
    Thanks again for your help,

    Thank you! I tried what you mentioned, nothing has worked... I plugged a usb keyboard and it works, so I'm starting to believe it could be a motherboard problem. I finally got windows xp pro installed, no conflicts in Device Manager, all the drivers are installed and now running smooth. I removed the keyboard, and re-set, all connections look good, but still not good. the synaptics keyboard works fine and both rt & lft click the buttons. I pulled the ram to inspect it, it's the right speed, ddr2700, and after running for an hour, it was cold to the touch! I'll try to get a new keyboard and replace it, their pretty good work, if still not good it becomes pieces on ebay... lol tx again... Marty

  • tried to install a new copy of Windows XP Home. Everything is OK until the final phase, when the "blue-screen" appeared during the installation of the drivers.

    Installation of xp and blue screen of death

    Hello

    I recently formatted the partition boot and recovery of a laptop Medion2230, then merged the two partitions in a single NTFS partition.  Don't ask why, it's a long story.

    Then, tried to install a new copy of Windows XP Home.  Everything is OK until the final phase, when the "Blue Screen of death" appeared during the installation of the drivers. Restarted and installing XP as normal to repeat the first onboard staged and went to the "blue screen" at the same point as before.

    Using some diagnostic software, I reformatted the drive again, loaded XP set up and I had the same problem.

    Someone knows what to do?

    Thank you allionii123

    Now solved and pc with Windows XP home.

    Discovered a trick online, who said that at the beginning of XP installation, press F5, and this leads to a screen option - select 'standard pc' and continue with the installation of XP.

    (Again), formatted hard drive ran XP installation and followed above point.

    Worked the first time.

    Thank you very much for your advice.

    How to impose a layer of HAL during an upgrade or an installation of Windows XP

    Impose a HAL

    To prevent Windows XP to automatically determine the system HAL during the upgrade or installation of Windows XP, you can manually force in a system HAL. To impose an Abstraction Layer HAL during a upgrade or installation of Windows XP, follow these steps:

    1. During the phase in text mode of Setup, when you receive the message at the bottom of the screen, press F5:

      Press F6 if you need to install a third-party RAID or SCSI driver.

      Note If you press F7, the Standard PC HAL loads and the ACPI enforcement is bypassed.

    I would not need this except in the systems of many older and low end... :-(  After all, in the same article, for Standard PC they say: "the CPU can be a 386, 486, Pentium, Pentium II, or Pentium III '...

    Thanks for letting us know what you were doing.  Do you have all the necessary drivers after loading Windows XP?  I would not recommend using the default drivers for any hardware - always see what the manufacturer offers on their web page for each component of your system - card motherboard chipset, audio, video, network devices, etc.

  • Whenever trying to install a new windows program gives me a prompt asking the administrator username and password?

    Hello Dominic,.

    Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Community.

    The prompt that you receive requesting the administrator username and password during the installation of any program is due to the User Account Control (UAC). UAC can help prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. UAC notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. These types of changes can affect the security of your computer or can affect settings for other people who use the computer. We recommend that you leave UAC to help your computer course.

    However, if you still want to delete the computer from Windows 8 user account control settings, you can view the suggestions about Disabling UAC in Windows 8.
