unable to install java there are errors in the following switches как исправить
JDK install unique error
So while attempting to install JDK via new task on task manager, it gives me the following error message:
There are errors in the following switches: «(1).exe»;
Check that the commands are valid and try again.
I searched for the problem using «There are errors in the following switches» and turned up only one result which didn’t help (surprising, considering the internet we live in today). Any and all diagnostic help is much appreciated, I’ve run out of things to try.

(The original poster has probably moved on. This is for people who encounter the same problem and find this Q&A via a Google search.)
The Question does not include enough information to diagnose the problem. Based on the little that has been provided, I would consider the following:
Maybe the «.exe» came from a suspect source. Download it again from the official Oracle Java download site. (Don’t trust 3rd-party download sites. They may be serving up an installer that is actually a trojan horse, or loaded up with bloatware. )
You didn’t say clearly how you tried to run the installer. Maybe you actually did invoke it the wrong way; e.g. with /(1).exe as a «switch».
Should I attempt a manual installation? Placing files where they need to go.
No. Bad idea. The installer should work if you have a genuine one and you run it the right way.
Unable to install Java on Windows 10 (1603 Error)
I tried to download Java on my laptop (which has windows 10) but i keep getting a 1603 error. My computer used to have windows 8.1 and it did not work back then either
I appreciate any advice to solve or work around this problem

I have had this problem. I was able to fix it thanks to a co-worker. The problem started happening after I installed HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT, aka QTP). Installing this product changes the Windows environment variables used by Java. He told me the following: «So change the names of JAVA_OPTIONS, IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS, JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS to something else (both in system and user variables) and delete any Java folder(in Program Files (x86) or Program Files) which gets installed despite the error. Restart the system and then try installing Java.»
Actually, all I did was rename the environment variables and run the installer. This worked.
I think you downloaded the wrong version. If your laptop support x64 bit software you should download Java 1.8 x64 version.
I had this problem for a month now. I tried everything on my windows 8, but I couldn’t get the latest java on it. When I tried to install java on an empty computer, the 64 bit version did not go through (error 1603) and I realized the problem didn’t come from an old java install and I install 32 bit. it worked on the new computer with windows 7 and on my computer running 8.1.
note: I had deleted all the java versions before going through with it.
Не устанавливается Java на Windows
Работа некоторого программного обеспечения зависит от вспомогательных утилит и приложений. Поэтому пользователи желают быстрее решить проблему, когда не работает уже установленная Java. Ошибки могут возникнуть и раньше, когда не устанавливается приложение Java на компьютер с ОС Windows. Разберемся в каждой проблеме и узнаем, что делать.
Почему Java не скачивается
Чтобы ответить на вопрос, что делать, если модуль Джава не скачивается на компьютер, важно понять, почему установщик не выполняет функций по загрузке библиотек.
Загружаемый на компьютер файл не содержит требующихся компонентов, а просто скачивает необходимые файлы из виртуальных библиотек через интернет. Важно проверить работу файрволов, антивирусов и браузеров. Такое ПО блокирует фоновую загрузку Java.
Решение проблемы достигается двумя вариантами: настройка приложений или скачивание полноценного установщика с нашего и официального сайта Джава. Обновите антивирус, просмотрите параметры блокировок.
Ошибки при установке
Если файл скачался, а Java не устанавливается на Windows 7, 8, 10 или XP, то проблема глубже.
Способы решения проблемы:
С остальными ошибками Джава на Виндовс стоит познакомиться поближе.
Error Java Installer
Если не запускается установщик программы Java, обратите внимание на подключение к интернету. Лучше продолжить процесс в автономном режиме, скачав исполняемый файл с соответствующей пометкой.
Когда установленная Джава не открывается, то используется программа Windowsfix. ПО помогает в устранении сотен ошибок, включая те, что встречаются на Java.
Ошибка 1603
Ошибка Java с пометкой Error Code: 1603 появляется в процессе установки обновления. Причина до сих пор не выявлена разработчиками.
Предлагаются следующие способы решения:
После переустановки приложения верните флажок на место.
Ошибка 1618
Чтобы исправить ошибку Java 1618, воспользуйтесь следующей инструкцией:
Причина ошибки 1618 при установке Java на компьютер разработчиками не выяснена.
Unable to install Java
Java Destination Folder
Ошибка папки назначения Destination Folder возникает на 32-разрядных версиях ОС Windows. Для решения проблемы создается новая папка в следующей директории: «C:\Program Files (x86)». Если есть какое-то содержание, то его нужно удалить.
Не запускается Java
Для начала убедитесь, что при установке не возникало неполадок и системных сообщений.
Как запустить программу Java, если возникают ошибки:
Приложение работает постоянно, но в фоновом режиме. Иными словами, вопрос, как открыть программу Java на компьютере, не имеет ответа. Главное – настроить взаимодействие с браузерами.

Thank you for choosing Windows 8 and posting your query on Microsoft Community Forums. We are here to assist you with all your Windows related issues.
1. Are you trying to install the updates for the Java software which is already installed on your computer or is this a fresh installation of the Java software on your computer?
2. Are you using any proxy settings on your computer to connect to the Internet?
3. Do you have a third party security program installed on your computer?
4. How are you trying to install Java? Is it using the Online Java Installer?
This error usually happens when you are using a proxy setting to connect to the Internet. It might also be due to the conflicts from a third party security program. I would suggest you to perform the following methods and check if that resolve the issue.
Method 1: Disable the Proxy Settings.
If this is the first time, you are trying to install Java on your Windows 8 computer, then follow these steps to disable the proxy settings.
a) Press “Windows Logo” + “R”, type “inetcpl.cpl ” and press “Enter”.
b) Click the “Connections” tab, and then click “LAN settings”.
c) Uncheck the “Use a proxy server for your LAN” check box.
After disabling the proxy settings, try downloading and installing Java and check if that help.
If you are getting this error while trying to install the updates for Java software which is already installed on your computer, then I would suggest you to configure proxies through the Java Control Panel and check if that work. For this, you may refer the article: “Configure Proxies through the Java Control Panel” from this link:
If the above method did not work, then I would suggest you to proceed with the next method to temporarily disable the third party security program, if you have installed one on your computer.
Method 2: Temporarily disable the third party security program (If you have installed any).
If you have installed a third party security program, then I request you to contact its technical support to temporarily disable the program and then try downloading and installing Java and check the issue.
Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn’t disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you’re done. If you’re connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
If you are using the online Java installer, then I would suggest you to try the offline installer package and check if that works. Often the offline package will install successfully while the online installer package encounters a problem.
Method 3: Try Offline Installation of Java.
I would suggest you to download the offline installer package from the given link and then install it successfully. The link for downloading the Java Offline installer package is:
For more information, you may also refer the article: “Download and Installing Java” from this link:
As a reference, you may also check this link for other download errors with Java:
This should resolve the issue. If you still face the same issue, then I would suggest you to get back to us with the results of these troubleshooting methods and with all the additional information regarding the issue.
Unable to install Java Error 1603
This has to be the MOST annoying error that I have encountered! I just cant get java8 u40 installed on my Windows 2008 R2 server.
The reason I need that is to install Blackberry Server 12.2.1 and this java update is one of the pre reqs and no matter what I do i am unable to get that on. I think I have searched almost everything online since this error has been countered by a lot of folks. Just hoping someone here has successfully installed that on a windows server!
I am able to install Java 7 but cant get Java 8 u40 installed.
Oh yeah I did try the offline installer as well which is the most common suggestion! So here’s hoping someone bails me out and I can get BES installed..
Have you already followed Oracles steps to resolve this error?
Do you have endpoint or antivirus protection that might be deleting some of the installation files? If yes, have you tried disabling it during the install?
And make sure jp2launcher.exe is not running when trying to install:
Have you tried both the x86 and x64 versions of Java?
Maybe this also applies if you have the SDK on there:
Also, the newest (currently most secure and least vulnerable) version is Java JRE 8u65 / 8u66:
If BES is compatible with this, always use the most recent version of Java, as older versions are riddled with vulnerabilities and security holes.

Did you try this MS Fixit tool?
Had similar problem with java on some computers (problem with uninstalling, or when installed some java files were corrupted), and this tool helped me a lot.
Yup, tried that as well.. but got this message so I left it!

Open Internet explorer and go to internet options, click on the advanced tab, under the security heading, untick the 3 checkboxes that say check for.
Ensure the Tick is checked on ‘allow software to run or install even if the signature is invalid

>> Yes, did that no luck!

>> We have McAfee AV and I haven’t tried disabling it because I don’t have the password and its with a different team and they are freaking out about the fact we have to put java on a server since its a HUGE security risk!
About jp2launcer.exe once I start the installation I dont see it but after sometime in the task manager but when i tried to end the process tree it doesn’t let me!
