Topics - Eric (Patch My PC)

#1
I have noticed for awhile now that Java is not always getting updated properly, Patch My PC will detect and out of date Java, successfully download it and attempt to install the new version. Unfortunately, like I said, it fails quite a bit of the time. To combat this issue, I go in and uninstall Java and then re-install it with Patch My PC.
Seems to happen for both 32 & 64-bit.

I have noticed this issue in the past with a batch file I used to use to update my programs with; I would first have t uninstall it with the proper msiexec string and then install the new one, however this only started with Java 7 and with 64-bit only. Oddly enough, installing any Java 64-bit version that is already installed of that version tends to make matters worse.

General Questions (Free Home Updater) / Java 7 Update 10
December 18, 2012, 11:07:44 PM
It's an update that has been out for several days now, not sure if the "Report Software Update" is actually working or not.
It also sees Update 10 as out of date, perhaps the program thinks 10 is less than 9
