1435632 2017-05-22 21:51:00 I re-installed and upgraded to Win10. In previous OS (Win7, 8.1) I always installed Java.

I haven't installed Java in Win10 yet and it seems my web browsing works just fine.

Is it necessary to install Java?

Cheers

I honestly couldn't tell you if java was on my PC or remember the last time I installed anything to do with it. Might check tonight just out of interest.

1435635 2017-05-23 06:51:00 Just checked my PC, been running windows 10 since it first came out and no java so I'm going to go with no, don't need it. dugimodo (138)
