Java Runtime Environment nonexistent instillation or runtime

Can you describe the problem in a little bit more detail?

well i got on my pc today and when i lunched minecraft the luanchj4 screen saying that java runtime wasnt installed and iv tried everything can u plz help me

I don't think your computer knows where your Java installation is. Go into your Environment Variables and set "PATH" to the /bin folder of wherever you installed Java.

can u explain to me how to get to when i need to go and how to do what ur saying needs to happen

Alright:
I'm assuming you're running Windows 7 or higher.

Open the explorer and right-click on "Computer" or "This PC".

Click on "Properties".

In the window that opens, click on "Advanced system settings" in the left navbar.

Click on "Environment Variables" in the window that opens.

Find "Path" in System Variables, add a semicolon and append the directory of your /bin Java folder.

what do u mean by "add a semicolon and append the directory of your /bin Java folder."

I mean:

Double-click on the "Path" variable.

At the end of the text, add a semicolon and append the directory.

append the directory?

sorry but i have no clue what u mean by that last part

this is the variable value what do u want me to do to it


;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin

Oh! Just change "jre6" to "jre7" and you're good to go.

Try this path:
;C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin

Huh...

Try installing Java to a different directory and use that path.

You could also try Java 8.

Make a new profile in the launcher and launch it. What happens?

Hm.

Install Java to a different directory.

can u send me where to make it to so i can copy it

It doesn't matter where.

Place it in a new folder titled "Java" next to your Program Files?

k let me do that

Don't forget to uninstall Java first.

how do i write it like i put it in my documents and named the folder in my documents that i put it in to java what do i put in as the path
