Geniuses do no have any answer for this, and I cant find a good fix online.

But Apple has becoming increasingly strict with Java, and by default it is no longer installed with a OS X 10.11 clean install, and youll find that after updating a Mac a prior version of JRE or JDK may no longer function.

By contrast, the C Ive lately been studying seems rather old-fashioned in some ways.

Choosing the JRE (which should be adequate, but isnt) wont work.

Nobody should ever need to install Java, the risks far outweigh the benefits.

Java is neither less nor more secure than other programming languages (in some ways it is still even way more secure than Obj-C or Swift).

The same is true for any other browser plugin (i.

Its better to have a single, system wide, regularly updated Java than to force developers to package their own JRE with the application and which then gets outdated and insecure over time.
