How do I set the PATH environment variable to point to JRE version 1.5

Question

Hi there I have a program that requires me to set the PATH environment variable to point to JRE version 1.5 as I need to access the program via a command prompt. So any ideas on how to do that?

Answer 1

Go to the control panel > System > Advanced and edit your environment variables there. Append "; C:\path\to\the\jre\bin" to the PATH variable. Open a new terminal and profit.
