I'm trying to add some runtime parameters to the Java Plug-In so that I can debug an applet in my browser. I go to the Java ControlPanel, click the Java tab, and click "View..." and add the runtime parameters. After I click OK and close everything, it doesn't work. So I go back to the Java Control Panel, and the changes I just made are gone!

Has anyone else seen this? What's going on? Is this broken?

On Vista with UAC enabled?

  • Find the "Command Prompt" in the Start menu.
  • Right click on it.
  • Select "Run as administrator"
  • Click "Continue"
  • Run C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javacpl.exe (adjust to wherever you have Java installed)
  • Make your changes.

  • Sorry, I should've given more information. I'm on Windows 7, UAC is turned off completely. I found that fix you posted but unfortunately it made no difference. – Joe Attardi Aug 05 '10 at 18:07
  • This actually worked for me. Extra good because the installed control panel is not the one for the JRE I am using. – Phoebe Mar 08 '13 at 22:33
